The seminar is free with support from Lilly Endowment Inc. and Garrett-Evangelical’s Leading Vibrant Congregations: A Collaboration of Faith and Finance Grant.
 
Through this seminar, you will learn how to:

  • Lead with all your resources working in concert (leveraging what you already know about financial best practices or preparing you to take our online course in Financial Management for Churches and Nonprofits);
  • Understand key issues that arise during organizational transformation;
  • Develop tools for managing challenges, mitigating risk, and balancing priorities;
  • Learn new methods for motivating others, engaging teams, and leveraging innovation and networks; and
