After we moved to PBG, it was clear that our staff meetings would need to be re-worked a bit. Right away, we realized that unless the Board's four desired outcomes became a regular topic of conversation for our staff, they would be quickly forgotten.
Here's what we've decided to do:
All of our ministry staff develop plans for the upcoming year built around the four desired outcomes of the Board. Throughout the year, ministry staff meet together weekly to discuss the plans and their on-going implementation. We cover one desired outcome each week, so over the course of a month, each of the four desired outcomes gets reviewed.
We go around the table and have each person briefly review their plans as well as what's working and not working. Before we move on to the next person, we take a moment for the other staff to give feedback to the staff member who just shared.
Typically, the entire meeting takes less than an hour.
I'm sure we won't do things exactly this way forever, but for now, it seems to be working for us.
How is your congregation using staff meetings to support PBG?
