What do you see? Opportunities OR Threats!
Mat 9:36-38 But when he saw the multitudes, he was moved with compassion on them, because they fainted, and were scattered abroad, as sheep having no shepherd. (37) Then saith he unto his disciples, The harvest truly is plenteous, but the labourers are few; (38) Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he will send forth labourers into his harvest.

What skills do we need for ‘the Work’?
PwCThink Global, Act Local – The International Administrator 16
Making the most of diversity could be a solution to skills challenges
The more diverse an organisation, the more productive and influential and high performing
4%higher
Organisations need to engage a multi-generational
workforce
Meanwhile, the next generation expect more flexibility…
Are we flexible enough for the younger generation?
How are we maximizing the mix of experience and new
perspectives?
How diverse are our churches?

The Block of Wood
The rate of change is deceiving and
difficult to comprehend. Yet when
change, in this case technology,
strikes ─ it strikes powerfully and
immediately.
How much time do we have?

How far do we pivot?
Radical shifts
Emerging ecosystems
Disruptive technologies
PwCThink Global, Act Local – The International Administrator 26
1.Are the people of the world’s behaviors changing and how do we change our interaction with them as a result?
2.How does trust influence our impact on the mission field? Does the world we are trying to reach trust us?
3.Are our leaders/workers/ congregations ready for disruption?
4.What can you anticipate from your ‘competitors’ and disruptors?
5.What capabilities, partnerships, strategic alliances, or other affiliations will you leverage to gain access to emerging technologies and innovation?
Key questions we should be asking...
