The Four Organizing Principles: Accountable Management

Accountable Management deals with the management systems of the congregation that focus on decision-making, resources of various kinds, and the underlining culture that impacts these. (See issue #4 of the Initial Inventory.)

If effective your congregation has excellent, flexible management systems (teams, committees, councils, boards, leadership communities) that empower the future direction of our congregation rather than seek to control the future direction.

If effective decision-making is open and responsive to congregational input.

If effective finances are healthy and increasing each year.

If effective the management systems are supportive of the visionary leadership efforts by the pastor, staff, and congregational leadership.

Accountable Management is discussed further in my article, Congregational Management.
