Many churches have begun to share key leadership duties, but don't know how to take their leadership team to the point where it <em>thrives.</em> Others seriously need a new approach to leadership: pastors are tired, congregations are stuck, and meanwhile the work never lets up. But what does it actually mean to do leadership well as a team? How can it be done in a way that avoids frustration and burnout? How does team leadership best equip the staff and bless a congregation? What do the top church teams do to actually thrive together? Researchers and practitioners Ryan Hartwig and Warren Bird have discovered churches of various sizes and traditions throughout the United States who have learned to thrive under healthy team leadership. Using actual church examples, they present their discoveries here, culminating in five disciplines that, if implemented, can enable your team to thrive. The result? A coaching tool for senior leadership teams that enables struggling teams to thrive, and resources teams doing well to do their work even better.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>Researchers and practitioners Ryan Hartwig and Warren Bird studied churches of various sizes and traditions throughout the United States that have learned to thrive under healthy team leadership. Using church examples, they present their discoveries here, culminating in five disciplines that will enable your team to thrive. Their book is a great coaching tool for senior leadership teams struggling to thrive, and a helpful resource for teams doing well but wanting to do even better.</p>--Facts Trends, August/September 2015<br><br><p><em>Teams That Thrive</em> is an incredibly practical guide for church leadership teams. Dr. Bird and Dr. Hartwig understand that pastors don't need another book on leadership theory; they need practical tools to implement collaborative leadership in the context of day-to-day ministry. That's exactly what <em>Teams That Thrive</em> delivers. </p>--Geoff Surratt, pastor, coach to church planters, and author of Ten Stupid Things That Keep Churches from Growing<br><br><p><em>Teams That Thrive</em> is especially helpful for pastors who lead a staff and want the staff to function as a team rather than as independent staff members who run in their own lane and rarely collaborate. Running a staff team that succeeds takes intentionality and hard work. This book helps spot areas of focus that will improve the pastor's leadership and the team's performance.</p>--David Whiting, Baptist Bulletin, September-October 2015<br><br><p>Acknowledging that every church context is unique, Ryan and Warren clearly explain each discipline and how they are accomplished. Commentary from a recognized expert or veteran leader validates insights and provides further tips for implementation. Starting with a reality test of your current leadership effectiveness, take your church staff to a new level of spiritual maturity, mutual support, energized action and high accountability.</p>--Thomas Bandy, Outreach Magazine's Resources of the Year, March/April 2016<br><br><p>I would recommend this book to any team that is struggling to grow their capacity and increase their effectiveness.</p>--Mennonite Brethren Herald, July 16, 2015<br>
