Do you know where your ministry is going? Can you clearly articulate for others who you are and why you exist? Identification and implementation of mission, core values, and philosophy are central to all aspects of successful outdoor ministry: program, site management, hospitality, marketing, finances, and more. Participants will delve into their organization’s mission and core values. This course involves organizational introspection and will engage with a wide variety of concepts, ideas, and activities. Coursework will challenge a new or clearer perspective concerning mission, philosophy, vision and core values in your outdoor ministry.
By the end of the course, participants will:
- Be challenged to clearly understand mission, philosophy, vision, and core values in their outdoor ministry.
- Articulate their organization’s purpose.
- Develop an elevator speech in order to share that purpose with the constituency.
