What Skills are Essential for Church Leaders to Lead Effectively?
To be effective in ministry, breaking through with the love of Christ, then you, as a church leader, need to skillfully move in the right direction with the right source of confidence, having the right objectives and the right means of getting there. You will need to break through the obstacles in your skill set that keep you from leading effectively.

You must acquire leadership skills but they must . . .

line up with God's character and ways
.. not what you, or the world, think is the right way to do things
be empowered by the Holy Spirit
.. not self-determination, pushing through no matter what to accomplish what you think should be done
produce eternal results using Godly processes
.. not letting the end justify the means
Two skills leaders must develop that will enable the accomplishment of the above objectives and improve the implementation of other leadership skills: Communication
First with God (prayer), demonstrating trust & reliance on Him
Then with people, demonstrating a desire for unity & participation

Listening
First to God, leading to wisdom & understanding
Then to people, leading to greater awareness & accountability

We must look at the following leadership skills using the above litmus test as a guide for their use. --
assessing
coordinating
delegating
goal-setting & vision casting
managing conflict
strategic planning
organizing
staffing
team building
