Transformational Leadership Development™ with Dr. Gary Simmons 

This training consists of four modules designed to equip New Thought leaders with an understanding of mission-centric principles that can lead to a more coherent and sustainable ministry practice.

These modules include:

• The Integrated Model of Ministry 
• The Ownership Project 
• The Integral Membership System 
• SpiritGroups Small Group Ministry

The Integral Model of Ministry is a new paradigm of ministry that utilizes a whole-system approach to engaging the challenges and opportunities of ministry. Having won the personal praise of world-renowned integral theorist and philosopher, Ken Wilber, Dr. Gary Simmons presents an overview of the model and how it moves beyond the 400 year old PastorFlock model of ministry. This module provides a clear framework for understanding how common ministry related issues are not so much problems to solve, but evolutionary drivers that need to be leveraged. Participants will learn about ways to affect cultural and system change that can lead to greater ownership and accountability.

Dr. Gary Simmons is co-­minister of Unity Spiritual Center Spokane and co-­founder of The QEffect, LLC. Dr. Simmons was instrumental in creating The Transformation Experience-a whole-system church growth and development approach based in part on his doctoral work, the Integral Model of Ministry. Dr. Simmons continues to support the growth of thriving ministries and enlightened leaders in both the Unity and Centers for Spiritual Living movements as a consultant.
