Who Will Help You Grow As An Emerging Leader?

Do you ever wish that...

• You could step back from the pace of life and gain a deeper understanding of the world and your role in it?
• God’s power would flow more freely through your ministry?
• Evangelism could be a more passionate and joyful part of your life?
• Someone who really understands leadership would take the time to help you grow as a leader?
• You could lead people more and drive them less?

Arrow Leadership Ministries may be able to help you through the Arrow Leadership Program.
The Arrow Program (from Isaiah 49:2, “He made me into a polished arrow”) has two streams; one is designed to help emerging leaders (ages 25-40) and another for executive leaders (based on positional leadership).

Emerging Christain leaders face unique challenges:
The process for the Emerging Leader stream takes place over a two-year period during which the participants will:

• Understand his/her leadership development through a formal assessment process;
• Focus his/her future development through writing an individualized development plan;
• Learn from gifted leaders at four semi-annual weeklong seminars with about twenty like-minded young leaders;
• Study dozens of the best books and resources in over fifteen different leadership areas;
• Integrate and apply the new skills in real-life projects; benefit from regular monthly meetings with one or more leadership mentors; and
• Share ideas and struggles with a group of peers.

Will another seminar, another book, do the job?
Leadership is more a matter of character, vision, values and passion than managerial ability. These deeper qualities take time and much interaction to develop. Where can young leaders find help? Help comes from several quarters: older leaders who have been there, peers wrestling with the same issues, a deep encounter with the living God and His Word, direct experience in leading.

The Arrow Leadership Programunites these elements into a workable model for helping emerging leaders become polished arrows. It combines mentors, peer clusters, structured leadership experiences, spiritual formation, leadership skills and evangelism training into a two-year on-the-job program.

Focus on Areas That Will Make a Difference in Your Leadership

• Spiritual/Character Formation -Developing your heart for God, leading your family, establishing connecting relationships, developing your heart for people.
• Leadership Skills - Assessment, team building, communication, strategy and management, Jesus’ leadership.
• Evangelism - Personal, understanding culture, preaching, empowering others.
• Kingdom Growth - Mobilizing the church, seeking kingdom growth world wide.

Reasonable Tuition ~ Reasonable Time Commitment

Tuition
Arrow Leadership is committed to providing quality programs at affordable fees for young leaders. The costs for the Arrow Leadership Program are $16,000 per participant. This includes comprehensive materials, professional assessment evaluation, faculty and staff, as well as four weeks of lodging and meals during the seminars. Each Arrow leader is responsible for covering $8,000 of these costs with Arrow investing an additional $8,000 for every leader we train. There are flexible payment options available which allow leaders to make payments in full (prior to the start of the program), over two or four installments, or on a monthly basis. Each participant will be responsible for books and his or her transportation costs to the seminars. Partial scholarship assistance is available for those with demonstrated need.

Time
The program consists of four one-week seminars over two years. Two seminars are held per year (about six months apart). In addition to the seminars, students participate in a monthly mentor meeting, one half-day peer cluster meeting per quarter and options ranging from 1-6 hours of reading and projects per week.

A third year spent on the D.Min. dissertation project, as well as additional fees, are required to complete the doctorate.

What participants are saying about the Arrow Leadership Program...

"Arrow Leadership is a key part of a process in which God is using to develop me towards mature servanthood." Kai Mark, pastor, Richmond Hill, Ontario

"Arrow has helped me by connecting my ministry with other men and women working for the Kingdom. I feel my support base has increased greatly and I feel a much broader vision of the mission field both in and outside America. I am more focused. I am more encouraged." Elizabeth Archer Klein, pastor, Gilroy, California

"If I were to put my Arrow experience into one word, that word would be impact. Arrow has impacted my life, my values, my vision, my relationships and my ministry. Life is not going to be the same anymore - it will be richer!" Adam Nickell, pastor, Flesherton, Ontario

"There has been unprecedented opportunity for me to get to know men of God who have lived (or walked) the road I am walking. There is an intimacy in the group and with mentors which allows for great communication and learning at a personal level. We get to watch, talk to, and learn from men of God, close up." Steve Grant, university evangelist, Portland, Oregon

"Arrow was a life changing time of learning confidence, focus, and passion to bring Jesus to the world." Lorna Dueck, TV broadcaster, Listen Up, Toronto, Ontario

"It has forced me to do much soul searching. I had to take a long look at my heart, my motivation, my tongue - really who I am. I didn’t like what I saw. The Holy Spirit has shown me that technique and methodology can never replace a heart and life sold out to Christ." Andy Ludlum, pastor, Waynesboro, Virginia

"It has become clear that much of the Church has lost its edge -Arrow has used God’s Word, Godly men and women, assignments and experiences to sharpen, hone, focus and refine us so we are used by God to reach our world." Paul Spate, pastor, Ponoka, Alberta
