How do you measure the un-measurable?

How much and how many are not very good questions when it comes to evaluating your success as a small group leader!

So, how do you know when your leadership style is "working"? How can you check the pulse of individual group members and yet preserve harmony and unity? And just as importantly, how can you weigh the effectiveness of your weekly small group experience?

It's evident that what works during one season may now need revising: Effective leadership requires discernment and flexibility!

This month on the Groups That Grow training series small group leaders will discover some very practical methods for evaluating the overall helpfulness of their leadership, as well as that of their group gatherings.

Veteran small group expert, Bill Donahue, will lay out a plan and a pattern for judging the impact of small group leadership.

Learn how successful small group leaders gather critical input and make the necessary course corrections along the way.

You'll receive practical solutions that will help your entire small group leadership team:

• Assess the quality of their leadership.
• Evaluate group dynamics.
• Appraise the group experience as a whole.
• Make necessary changes.

Give your teams two essential keys to Group Success... Evaluating Progress and Embracing Change.
