Insights July 2022
13/07/2022 @ 1:00 pm - 2:00 pm
Free
Insights, is a monthly time of information, connection and inspiration. Last year we saw leaders from across 173 churches within our movement gather throughout the year for Insights Zoom. We’ll be diving deeper into different areas of Leadership Development across each 1-hour session. Allowing each session to become an Insight into one of these areas.
If you are a Baptist leader do not miss this opportunity to invest in your leadership development. Be intentional in setting aside time to fellowship and grow with other Baptist leaders as we journey together to our Gen1K Goal of 1000 Healthy Churches in a Generation.
Insights will take place on a monthly basis through Zoom and this months session will take place on Wednesday July 13 at 1pm. When we have events like The Gathering and our Annual Assembly or Leadership Conversations we will skip those months to make it easier for you to engage in Association-wide events. We’re even looking to bring in some experts to help with Insights topics. In 2022, Insights is will take place on the following days. Be sure to pop them in your diary.
- February 16
- March 16
- April 13
- June 15
- July 13
- August 17
- September 14
- October 19
- November 23
**Insights will not take place in May as other key Association’s events will take place in these months**
What topics will we be exploring?
This month we are joined by Des Ong! Des will be giving us an insight into the Leadership Development of Business Leaders. How do we disciple and mentor Christian leaders that will be leaders in their workplace?
Des is a Director of The Future Leader Group, which focuses on leadership development, people and culture design, organizational change and executive coaching, in shaping “future ready” leaders. Over the last 20 years, Des has worked across corporate, NFP and ministry contexts at leadership and board governance levels. Born and educated in Australia, yet raised with an eastern cultural background it has given him insight into cross-cultural dynamics, perspective taking and personality. With this experience he has a philosophy of being a life-long learner and student of people, culture and leadership. Des’s passion is the intersection of faith and the marketplace and how to thoughtfully engage and enable Christians in their vocation to be kingdom-minded followers of Jesus. When not at work, you might find Des cycling, watching a good movie or being hospitable with friends and family.
Who is Insights for?
Insights is for any leader within your church. This means the obvious leaders like Pastors (Senior, Executive, Associate etc), but it also extends to leaders outside of pastoral ministry (Secretaries, Treasurers, Elders etc). You may also choose to use this as a leadership development tool for people you see leadership potential in.
