The Ministry Effectiveness Leadership Development & Coaching Cohort is a unique opportunity designed specifically for ministry practitioners and leaders.

As part of the Matthew 25 Initiative's commitment to equipping and supporting Anglicans serving alongside the vulnerable, we know the critical importance of strong leadership in driving the success and growth of work. We also know that many ministries struggle to prioritize formal leadership development due to costs and accessibility. Our vision is to bridge this gap by offering partial scholarships to a select group of qualified leaders.

AREAS OF FOCUS

Leadership Development

Organizations rise and fall on leadership. When a leader gets better, everyone wins. We start with self-awareness and the idea of knowing ourselves to lead ourselves.

Team Development

People are the greatest asset of any endeavor, yet most teams operate at around 60% effectiveness. Healthy teams have strong communication, relationships, alignment, execution, and capacity.

Program Development

We want to achieve outcomes and impact our communities. Key to this is a strong program model with a clear theory of change that clarifies the problem to solve, ministry approach, and envisioned better tomorrow.

Marketing & Fundraising

Most ministries struggle to communicate clearly, consistently, and concisely to engage supporters and rally donors to the vision. We can help.

Operations & Back-Office

Few people start ministries to focus on the details and operations. Many get bogged down in or have ineffective and inefficient systems and tools that hamper the ministry work.

Execution & Monitoring

Though ministries are rarely short on vision, the discipline to execute and build tools to monitor progress is often lacking. We provide the tools needed to track growth.
