Leadership doesn’t always look the way we expect it to.
Sometimes it’s loud—a clear voice in the room, naming direction, calling people forward.
Sometimes it’s soft—the person who notices what’s being left unsaid and creates space for others to speak.
Some leaders are organized, energized by plans and structure.
Others are disorganized in the best way—creative, adaptive, able to move when the moment shifts.
Some of us need time to process, to think our way into wise decisions.
Others can make a quick call, trusting instinct and experience.
All of these ways of showing up can be faithful.
All of them can be forms of leadership.
And all of them shape the communities we serve.
And because we have adopted the mission of every member a minister, we are all leading each time we are on our campus or with our church community.
In February we will be guided in this work by the Rev. Dr. Jon Singletary of Baylor University. Jon’s work has been cultured and curated to focus on leadership through the lens of the Enneagram. His work reminds us that leadership grounded in reflection, empathy, and responsibility can be transformative.
Through the Enneagram, we will discover that our skills and styles are not wrong. But that we can notice how we lead, why we lead that way, and what happens under pressure. It gives us language for our strengths, compassion for our limits, and curiosity about the people who lead differently than we do.
At the heart of every member a minister we see that leadership is not reserved for a few titles or temperaments. It lives in classrooms and implementation teams, conversations and crises, in those who speak first and those who listen deeply.
This workshop is an invitation to better self-awareness—not as an end in itself, but as a gift to the people we lead and the church we love. And we want everyone to participate.
So come curious.
Come honest.
Come exactly as you are.
Because the way you lead matters—and learning to lead with greater awareness is a gift worth giving yourself.
