July 1 @ 11:00 am – 12:00 pm
Simplified Accountable Structure, also known as the “One Board Model,” is one of the most effective ways for congregations to streamline leadership, reduce bureaucracy, and focus more clearly on mission. But how do you actually design it within the requirements of the United Methodist Book of Discipline?
In this practical webinar, Blake will walk through the nuts and bolts of designing a simplified accountable leadership structure that is both faithful to the Book of Discipline and flexible enough to fit your congregation’s unique context. Participants will explore key denominational non-negotiables, common challenges, right-sizing options, and proven best practices to design a Leadership Board that functions with clarity, accountability, and a missional focus.
Rev. Dr. Blake Bradford is co-author of Mission Possible: Simplifying Church Leadership (4th Edition) and recently completed nearly a decade of service as a district superintendent and conference staff member.
