Legacy Leadership Initiative

CBMC is passionate about developing leaders within our movement. We fully embrace the time tested concept that "everything rises or falls with leadership." With that as a preface, we have developed a compelling equipping process that we call the Legacy Leadership Initiative (LLI). This process takes the initiative to equip men just like you in a manner that employs unwavering Biblical principles and the best of adult-education methodology. This is no endless string of fancy buzzwords and "catchy" slogans, rather, it is a highly relational and personally relevant experiential learning opportunity that will both excite and energize. As a result of developing your own leadership potential you will naturally desire to develop and equip future generations of CBMC leaders along the lines of 2 Timothy 2:2.

Once you complete the entire process you will possess unparalleled leadership competence in the following areas:

1. Leadership Coach Training

In today’s world, authentic sustainable leadership is a result of transformation from the inside-out. It moves from the heart to the hands. Leadership coaching focuses on that transformation by listening well and asking powerful questions that connect the developing leader with God’s design for his life. Our superb training is rooted in a desire to provide and maintain the highest Christian coaching standards and practices. CBMC is constantly checking the pulse of its training to make certain that the materials and delivery methods remain engaging and relevant. These non-negotiables are what led CBMC to partner with the Center for the Advancement of Christian Coaching in developing and presenting this unique training. www.caccoaching.com

2. Building Powerful Ministry Teams

A powerful CBMC ministry team is like a well-designed, high performance race car. For most of us, the level of knowledge of what makes a team work is similar to our understanding of what lies under the hood of a car where we’re confronted with a confusing tangle of wires, tubes, springs and screws. If we’re going to build a powerful CBMC ministry team, fix a broken one, or restart a stalled one, we must understand what is under the "hood."

Learning what is "under the hood" of a powerful ministry team is unlike anything you have ever experienced. Leaders who immerse themselves in this experience learn powerful principles for maximizing teamwork and how to pass those principles on to others in team building workshops and consulting situations through ways you’ve never dreamed possible. Armed with cutting edge knowledge on how to equip a team properly, you will watch as your team begins to embrace a clear compelling purpose, function with clear rolls and responsibilities, celebrate accepted leadership, utilize effective process, develop solid relationships, and profit from excellent communication.

Once you become a powerful ministry team, you will accomplish something truly exceptional. Of course, "exceptional" is up to each team to define, but within CBMC, it will likely translate into an increase in life-on-life ministry, new teams being formed and increased influence in our cities for the cause of Jesus Christ.

"I’ve been involved with teams elsewhere in corporate arenas, and I am so blessed to participate in such high quality team training. Coupled with the Legacy Leadership Initiative’s Leadership Coach Training, what I find is teams are a structure and coaching is the heartbeat with it. It’s amazingly powerful." – Erik Birkenes, Santa Rosa, California

3. Biblical Foundations for Leadership

Much can be learned in the Bible about leadership. Whether it is the study of Old Testament prophets and kings, an examination of the relationships between Jesus and his followers, or the sagas of God at work through teams of people, they all teach us valuable leadership lessons. Participants in this self-directed course unpack how the lessons learned from Biblical-based experiences can be applied in today’s world with striking results.
