Estrutura da Liderança

This resource was developed from a study of a number of highly effective leaders within Cru/Campus Crusade for Christ (CCC). It combines the requirements of both spiritual and strategic leadership in light of our calling and identifies what is critical for leaders in our organization.

You can grow and improve as a leader by applying the roles and responsibilities of the framework to your context. Feel free to adapt or adjust the resources so they are helpful to you.

Relationships
Your personal character, and both your relationship with God and with others, form the base from which you lead.
Roles
There are four roles that describe how you think and what you do as a leader: Direction Setter, Change Agent, Coach and Spokesperson.
Responsibilities
For each role, there are four responsibilities: vision casting, strategy formulation, aligning, and motivating.

We must develop leaders. That is part of our stewardship of the people God has entrusted to us – to help them become the best they can be. Likewise, the mission demands an increasing base of leadership for the current reality and the future. Our desire is each team member, disciple, or participant in mission grows into Christ-like maturity and increasing ability to minister and multiply.

This resource outlines a number of different aspects of leadership:

  1. Heart – Our relationship with God
  2. Relationships – character and quality of our relationships
  3. Roles – how we think and what we do
  4. Responsibilities – or influence skills, needed in each role
  5. Results/Stewardship – the categories for evaluating our effectiveness

Each element of the Framework has:

  1. an Overview that explains the purpose (outcomes) of the session, the key resonating ideas, and slides of the PowerPoint presentation, some preparation tips, and a review of the additional resources for the session. It will be helpful if you read this page first for each session.
  2. a slide Presentation that you can use or adapt to meet your needs. There are ample notes included in each presentation and interactive activities to facilitate learning.
  3. an Article (or a few) to read about the topic, and
  4. Additional Materials and resources for deeper study and understanding.

The Heart of the Leader

Your relationship with God is central to your life and leadership. “For apart from Me, you can do nothing.” John 15:5

In the Bible, the core essence of the person is summed up in the word “heart.” We use the phrase, “heart of a leader,” to capture our relationship with God and the essential character and personal qualities essential to leadership.

The Relationships of a Leader is the foundational category of our framework and flows from the “Heart” of the leader. Your personal character and qualities and your relationships with others form the base from which you lead.

There are four roles in the Leadership Framework: Direction Setter, Change Agent, Coach, and Spokesperson. These four roles describe how you think and what you do as a leader.

The Direction Setter

A Direction Setter continually thinks about the future of the organization and about what needs to happen to accomplish the mission—to win, build, send, and multiply Christ-centered disciples who launch spiritual movements.

The Change Agent

A Change Agent is responsible for leading the team in identifying and removing obstacles that might keep them from achieving the mission. This person looks ahead to new trends and opportunities and takes the time to lead the team in doing the evaluation, research, and testing that is required to keep the team on the cutting edge of accomplishing the mission. With creativity and attention to changes in the environment of the audience they are trying to reach, the Change Agent leads the adaptation to changing conditions in pursuit of mission and vision.

The Spokesperson

The Spokesperson is responsible for communicating and representing the mission to those outside the organization or outside of your team. As Spokesperson, the leader takes the initiative to build a network and manages the various, crucial relationships that are essential to the mission.

No matter which role you are operating from, there are four Responsibilities, or influence skills, needed in each role. For example, a leader in the Coach role will need to cast vision, have a strategy, align, and motivate people to be encouraged and equipped to live out the mission. These four Responsibilities are: aligning, motivating, vision casting, and strategy formulation.

Aligning

Aligning is inviting others to join in through involvement or direct invitation; it is the ability to bring all of your people and structures together, pulling in the same direction, in order to carry out the strategies and accomplish the vision.

Results

Leaders pursue results. Results establish the categories for evaluating our effectiveness. Our vision is “Movements Everywhere”, and the Local Movement Indicators represent essential faith actions and fruit we are looking for to measure our progress toward our vision. Other levels of the organization have different measures according to the stewardship of that part of the organization.

Stewardship

Wise stewardship (Matthew 25) implies both good management and capacity growth for the future. Our under-girding assumption is that we, as organizational leaders, are stewards of all that is entrusted to us: our calling and direction, people, finances, technology, property, time, and talents.
