Australian Mentoring Network Conference 2012

It was great to unwind from a busy week at the Australian Mentoring Network Conference at Stanwell Tops on Thursday and Friday. I enjoyed the input from Les Scarborough and from Mindy Caliguire (Willow Creek’s Spiritual Formation program).

A range of Les’ materials are also available on John Mark Ministries Mentor Exchange website.

Mindy has some of her teaching available on You Tube. She covered the second session on the leaders soul in Sydney last week.

The Chaplains of the ADF serve in a complex and challenging environment.

Facilitation Skills Training – Workshop 11 for the Baptist Union of NSW Church Consultancy Team

A beautiful day in Sydney (while I hear it was raining and cold in Tassie) for our second last workshop in the Church Consultancy Training Program for the Baptist Union of NSW and ACT. It was good to debrief a couple of completed consultancies and to talk through some facilitation techniques. Dropbox files are updated and I have added a couple of documents discussed in training today.

Accreditation of nine Parish Recovery Consultancy Team members for the Anglican Diocese of Sydney

It is always a bit sad to say goodbye to a team of consultants I have been training, sometimes for several years. It was like this today in Sydney seeing nine new team members complete their training and farewelling others I have worked with for 6 years. Thanks for the cake and parting gift. It is good to reflect on the capacity that is now in place largely due to the commitment and advocacy of the original Tamar group and many survivors of Clergy misconduct who have worked for education, awareness and new levels of care for everyone impacted these events.

Welcome

Welcome to ‘the johnmark extension’, my current primary website. If you have attended a seminar or training day that I have facilitated, the notes and resources should be linked below in my ministry blog.

The ‘johnmark extension’ provides leadership training in a wide range of areas oriented toward the professional learning of pastors and the leaders of Christian and not for profit organisations. See the areas in which I am currently teaching and training
Leadership Development Workshops.

Many of these resources have also been shared on
The Christian Leadership Exchange

Developed out of our mentoring training, the MEQ course, which is offered in a range of formats from ACT accredited through to workshop based short courses, there is a resources site for leaders who mentor others. Check out resources on The Mentor Exchange

Over recent years teaching skills in Conflict Management has become an area in its own right for me. Find conflict resources and training in peacemaking here:
