Dr. Ed Brenegar from the Community of Leadership, LLC. gave a wonderful presentation regarding future leadership in congregations at the Stewardship Kaleidoscope conference in Charlotte, North Carolina. In one of the materials Dr. Brenegar has made available, he states “The key to understanding the future is that Ideas are becoming increasingly important, not for their inspirational power, but for their connecting power.
In particular values build unity within organization, and this is especially true where there is a culture of openness for people to take initiative, to participate, to contribute and to creatively make a difference that matters.
Some of this is being brought on by the capacity of people through advanced education and technology to have greater resources to give to organizations, like churches.
As a result, organizational structures are changing to accommodate higher levels of personal initiative. As a result, an environment of shared responsibility and shared leadership is resulting. This is in many ways the future of the church and all organizations.”
