The mission of The High Purpose Practice is to equip leaders for service.

 

We specialize in serving High Purpose people, teams, and organizations that are faith-based and mission-minded such as churches, Christian higher education, healthcare systems, and para-church ministries.

 

Our proven approach provides strategic navigation and leadership development that accelerates growth through our unique combination of content, community, and coaching applied to the context of real-world ministry.

CONTENT

 

A unique blend of timeless truths of the Bible with evidence-based leadership principles based on the proprietary Serving Leader Toolkit. Our work House on Fire! illustrates the powerful combination of these two sources together.

COMMUNITY

 

Cohorts of leaders within an existing team, cross section of the organization, or peer groups across different organizations. Mutual learning, support, and challenge from one another.

COACHING

 

One on one thinking partner to maximize learning from experience, as well as navigate leadership opportunities and challenges.

CONTEXT

 

Action-based learning that happens in the environment of leading ministry in the real world.

    Mike has a unique ability to bring together diverse groups within complex systems to achieve a common purpose. Follow through, attention to detail, and coalescing the team are some of his team's strengths! I’d highly recommend him for any job that involves bringing together a team and coaching them through to the finish line.

    I was very impressed with the work done with the senior MCYM staff with me present. They led the group to a consensus about the things that are going to be the key factors to the future success of the ministry without imposing their preconceptions on the group. I would hire them again without hesitation.
