We've all seen organizations falter and ministries collapse. As the rubble piles high, most people run away, while only a select few run toward the wreckage. These brave souls are ReLeaders—gifted rebuilders called to restore what is broken. In ReLeader, Jon Chasteen equips releaders with a biblical framework and practical insights to successfully ReLead teams, departments, and organizations back to health.
Drawing from his experiences revitalizing a church, a university, and more, Jon provides wisdom and encouragement for the unique challenges ReLeaders face. This book will teach you:
How to rebuild a foundation of trust
Ways to persevere through conflicts and challenges
Why investing in culture and accountability safeguards the future
How to finish strong and reinforce the transformation
For pastors inheriting troubled churches, executives stepping into turnarounds, or anyone spearheading change, ReLeader is an indispensable guidebook. With God's help, you can rebuild it, even if you didn't break it.
