Congregational Governance: Is it Carver or Chaos?

Posted by Annette Marquis on February 19, 2008

Tonight’s webcast focused on models of congregational governance and the role of boards in congregations. We explored the John Carver Model of Policy Governance, along with several other governance models. In addition, we looked at accountability in congregations and ways to move a board from a micro-managing board to a generative board that is asking the visionary questions.

I’ve posted a PowerPoint version of the presentation, along with a PDF version of the slides for those who prefer to review the presentation that way.

You can view the entire webcast from this link: Congregational Governance Webcast. Click the big right-arrow in the center of the first slide to run the webcast. You might have to scroll a bit to see it all. The Webcast runs about 70 minutes.
