5 TRACK 2 CHURCH STAFFING ADVANCED SESSIONS ADVANCED SESSION #1 (KEYNOTE) CHURCH STAFFING TRENDS: 4 CHALLENGES EVERY CHURCH FACES MONDAY 7:00-8:30PM William s ministry experience and church staffing firm made him our first choice to launch our event on this topic. William has been able to combine over 15 years of ministry experience as a senior pastor with the best practices of executive search to provide churches with a unique offering: a deep understanding of local church work with the very best knowledge and practices of professional executive search. WILLIAM VANDERBLOEMEN FOUNDER/CEO, VANDERBLOEMEN SEARCH GROUP William studied executive search under a mentor with over 25 years of experience at the highest level. He also has experience as a manager in human resources in a Fortune 200 company, where he focused on integration of corporate culture and succession planning.

He teaches classes on change and conflict management in the local church, and has written and taught two online courses: Newcomer Integration and Diagnosis and Prescription for a Healthy Church. DR. CHARLES ARN PROFESSOR, WESLEY SEMINARY Every church has a unique history, context, and a particular positive or negative momentum. On the other hand, churches face many similar obstacles, require many common ingredients for their growth mix, and benefit from many similar prescriptions. In this session Dr. Arn shares a potpourri of rules and ratios that any consultant will find useful as a reference, regardless of the unique situation facing each church. Dr. Arn became actively involved in the study of church growth and health as his father (Dr. Win Arn) began to pioneer the study and application of church growth principles to North America in the early 1970s. He is past president of the Great Commission Research Network, an association of professors, executives, pastors, and consultants dedicated to the study of evangelism and congregational outreach.

You will learn why churches should staff the right leaders in the right places and how barriers to change occur. Bob has stated in his book Preparing for Change Reaction, Our leaders are not good at bringing about change. It is because we do not have tactical leaders in place. He is a sought-after speaker known for humor and applicability. He is the author of many scholarly and popular articles as well as 11 books in 13 years, including: The Healthy Church: Practical Ways to Strengthen a Church s Heart, Cure for the Common Church: God s Plan to Restore Church Health, Organix: Signs of Leadership in a Changing Church and Preparing for Change Reaction: How to Introduce Change to Your Church.

TIM HESTER EXECUTIVE PASTOR, SOUTHEAST CHRISTIAN CHURCH Tim s session will address the fact that most turnover occurs within an organization, not because of a skill deficiency, but because of a lack of fit culturally. He will discuss how to identify key traits that help to define your organizational culture and then develop criteria to identify candidates that fit your organization and move you closer to the fulfillment of your goals. This kind of information will be invaluable to pastors, consultants, and other church leaders. Tim and his family have worshipped at Southeast Christian Church for 15 years.
