Strategies for Coaching the
Redevelopment Journey: Revisioning

This strategy is most relevant for a congregation in the Maturity stage of the life cycle, and involves a Vision/Values Route.

Length of the redevelopment journey is six to eighteen months.

Congregational life cycle-related tactical steps for the Revisioning Strategy include the following:

  • Diminish the controlling aspects of management systems within the congregation. Cast new vision.

  • Engage in a rate or pace of change and transition that is continuous with the past.

  • Move forward to a new Adulthood.

  • Reengineer the management systems in alignment with the new vision, and with planned obsolescence to keep it from becoming institutionalized.

The Revisioning strategy is discussed further in my article, ReVisioning the Life of a Maturity Congregation.

If, at this point, you have completed your Route and reviewed your strategy for Coaching, consider Choices next.
