Borderlands Session 7: The Pastor as Manager, The Church as Business. Exploring Leadership from a Theological Perspective
<h1>The Pastor as Manager, The Church as Business.</h1> <h2>Exploring leadership from a theological perspective.</h2> <p>Join us for a night of conversation with Rahel Siebald as she reflects on relevant questions in relation to leadership in the church and society.</p> <p><br></p> <p>Abstract: We live in a time, where it has become normal to look at activities inside and outside the church from the viewpoint of efficiency. We are used to talk about “Self-Management,” to build up “leadership skills” and “teamwork,” and to ask for the best and most efficient method to do things – in order to reach more people in less time, to make the most out of our resources. This way of thinking didn’t stop at the doors of the church. But what does happen to the church, if we think the pastor needs to become a better leader and churches should be managed like the business next door? Together we want to take time to understand the origins of our time as the age of management and ask how that has shaped and changed our understanding of being church.</p> <p><br></p> <p><strong>HOW TO ENGAGE IN CONVERSATION:</strong></p> <p>1. As the first section of this encounter, you can listen to Rahel Siebald introduction and talk on her topic, provided on the following podcast:</p> <p>2.
