    About this ebook

    This booklet guides clergy to tend to your leaders and to build a team with your staff. Teamwork is more important than any single individual’s contribution. Clergy become mentors to their staff, and advocate on their behalf. Clergy inspire, motive and provide meaning and purpose to volunteer leaders. A shared ministry which is proactive and collaborative guides your congregation to becoming the most a church can be. Also included are tips on staff evaluations as well as the pastor’s annual evaluation.
