YPT Podcast Episode 60: Good Leadership in Youth Ministry (Beau Johnson)
Leadership matters. That should be a pretty obvious statement, but sometimes theologically-minded pastors can struggle to discern how much overlap really exists between pastoral leadership and leadership in other spheres. Today we’ll be talking about leadership, spiritual gifts, and the “Six Types of Working Genius” in order to help you lead your volunteers, parents, and students more effectively.
Why is good leadership so important for men and women in ministry leadership? What do we risk by an immature or underdeveloped approach to leadership?
What are the “Six Types of Working Genius”? Where did this come from, what are they and how can listeners begin to discern their geniuses, competencies, and frustrations?
Do you see any overlaps between working genius and spiritual gifts?
How can youth pastors who lead teams of volunteers and also serve under pastoral leadership grow as self-aware leaders, and how does the Working Genius model help with that?
Beau Johnson Invents and Galvanizes as the Director of Operations for the Table Group and has served as a youth pastor and in other areas of pastoral ministry before joining the Table Group… and I’m really exited to have him join us today. He and his family live in Utah.
