Strategic Planning (Creating a Vision for Churches)
John Stott said, "Vision begins with a holy discontent with the way things are". Charting a new or altered course for your ministry can be a defining moment. Strategic planning develops consensus for your mission, vision, core values, strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats, and set goals, actions plans, and assigns implementation responsibilities and timelines. The Timothy Group will help your strategic planning task force; made up of employees, Board, donors and other stakeholders, through this process as an unbiased, experienced facilitator. Whether you complete the process in a weekend, or over a series of sessions, we will help you turn discontent into a clear vision for the future of your ministry. As you face the fork in the road, we will help you to choose your desired future.

Professional Dynametric Programs® Team Scan
Getting the right people on the bus and in the right seats is critically important according to James Collins' book Good to Great. If you put the wrong person in a position you will waste money, lose opportunity and possibly damage constituent relations. We have guided searches for CEO's (College Presidents, Heads of Schools), Development staff (Directors of Development, Major Gifts Officers) and others. We start by creating a position description. Then we seek input as to the ideal mix of personality traits needed for that position using the Professional DynaMetric Programs® (PDP) Job Model. We help to advertise the position through our broad base of contacts around the world, and can handle the replies that result. We will help determine the personality traits of the top candidates with the PDP Pro Scan survey. We will then assist you in selecting the best candidate and later on with preparing you to direct and manage that person. We can even examine the personality traits of all the people that are involved in the team with the PDP Team Scan to determine the best allocation of tasks, based on capabilities. E-harmony® isn't the only business making perfect matches these days. The Timothy Group can do it too. Let us help you with those critical personnel decisions. |
