Fresh Air for Mission Leaders

Posted on December 2, 2016 by December 2, 2016

As Mission Leaders you have lots of ongoing work on your plate, as well as challenges and limitations. You are not alone! In this leadership series Sherri Dodd, founder and executive director of Advance Global Coaching provides an interactive learning forum with special guests of other mission leaders and mission coaches to help you breathe and move forward with wisdom and support for your significant role. Don’t miss the engaging scenarios each week that stimulate your thinking. There were three sessions:

1.  Clearing the Fog

In this webinar you gain clarity on what coaching is and how it is distinctive from other helping services like counseling, consulting, and mentoring. Not every job needs a “hammer”. Let’s explore some tools in a mission leader’s toolbox and practice how to choose the best one for the job. Don’t miss our surprise guest!

2.  Breathing Easy

In week two we explore the importance of finely tuned skills.  Can anyone coach? What is the value of a credentialed coach? Listen in on a coaching demo and decide for yourself. Learn how coaching helps with life balance, retention of workers, fundraising, staff development, marriage enrichment and more. Who is our special guest today?

3.  Exhaling – A Job Well Done 

We all long to hear, “Well done, thou good and faithful servant.” In our grace filled environments can we be too relaxed? In this session we discuss accountability in missions work and how coaching promotes a healthy version of this. We breathe deeply when a job is well done. Meet our special guest and learn from his insights.

Sherri Dodd is a career missionary, ministry leader and a Professional Certified Coach with the International Coach Federation. As the founder and executive director of Advance Global Coaching, she has a heart for the emotional and spiritual health of mission workers!  After serving in Europe with her husband as a church planter for 22 years, she knows the pressures of adjusting to new cultures, learning new languages, moving nationally and internationally. Sherri understands what it takes to build a ministry, a home, and a family. She has been married to her high school sweetheart, Randy since 1975 and has experienced both the rewards and the difficulties inherent to balancing marriage and ministry. The Dodds have three adult children, three grandchildren and live in the Atlanta area.

Today, Sherri undergirds cross-cultural workers and mission leaders with support that nourishes, challenges and sustains. She believes coaching is a personalized tool that can help reduce the attrition rate in missions. Through phone and internet appointments this ongoing support is affordable and accessible. AGC has a team of coaches to serve mission leaders and workers so that they thrive in their calling!
