Do you enjoy helping others develop and reach their potential? Are you a good listener, but keen to develop your active listening skills? Have you noticed how great questions open up a conversation? Then you may have the potential to be a great coach.

Coaching is a gift we can offer one another as we seek to become a growing, evangelistic, justice-seeking church of gospel people. Coaches help people reflect on their practice through structured conversations, asking great questions, and holding people accountable to the action points they have set themselves. It’s not about having all the answers, or about giving good advice, but about guiding people as they reflect, act, and reflect again. The Evangelism and Growth Team, in partnership with the Learning Network, are investing significant time and money in coaching, as we believe this is a gift from which most if not all Methodist leaders could benefit.
