What's in the Best Prep Kit?
Our Best Prep Kit provides interactive and practical help as well as all of the tools you need to develop a great team. We entirely customize the process to the team leader’s ability through our face-to-face training over Skype. This brings leaders to the level that hosts are asking for.
This includes best practices for:
- Administration and Trip Development – Best practices, administration and the legal stuff
- STM Leader Development – Specific development for STM team leadership and support leaders
- Team and Fieldwork – What are we going to do over there? Host and team relationships
- Ministry Prep and Training – Coaching for 4-12 sessions depending on purpose/capacity of team
- Debriefing and Re-entry – The number one place where returning team members often fail
How this works:
The Best Prep Kit is live, one-on-one coaching for a team leader to prepare his or her team for incredible international success. If you have ever wondered why some teams seem to work better than others, this coaching will provide you with concrete tools that meet and exceed the best practices in Short-Term Mission.
- You gain access to exclusive resources you can immediately use
- You receive the forms, templates and tools you need to manage any STM trip
- You meet with a dedicated STM Network trainer live (on Skype)
- You are supported through all the phases of the trip (pre-departure, overseas and return)
- You receive a personal plan and incredible training materials for all team sessions
- You can ask and expect answers to your questions through email, text or a call
Is this for me?
Ask any missionary and they will tell you (if they are feeling safe enough to tell the whole truth) that at times the most difficult leader to teach is someone who is successful. The truth is that international work is different than successful business or ministry back home. If you are willing, this process will stretch you.
Whether you are a new team leader, or you have been doing it for years, we all have something to learn. The best team leaders know that they can always learn more. If you want to grow your ability to lead teams, you need this resource.
