High Impact Teams

One of the biggest challenges in the church is creating and developing ministry teams that work together. It's hard work to bring a group of people together to pursue agreed to goals and objectives.

Lance Witt is referred to as a pastor's pastor.  He understands the challenges that pastors, leaders and their teams face.  His new book, "High Impact Teams," is a welcomed and needed reference tool that will benefit any ministry team.

Witt is very candid about describing the mistakes he made while in ministry.  Most importantly, he learned from those mistakes and one of the goals of "High Impact Teams" is helping ministry leaders and teams avoid those mistakes.

The book covers a gamut of subjects, from how leaders define what success should look like to how to have a difficult conversation resulting in a win-win for both individuals.  Although any pastor or ministry leader would find reading the book helpful, Witt has designed the book for use in a group or team setting with discussion questions following each chapter.

I found the book highly accessible and easy to read. I particularly like reading books by those who write from experience.  That is just one of the reasons to read "High Impact Teams."
