Executive Searches - for the Organization

Let MAPPINGS help you find your next executive leader through the development of an opportunity profile and a thorough search and screening process. We have professionals on our team with the background and experience to deliver on your desired outcomes.

Executives Searches - for the Leader

At MAPPINGS, we like the word “liminality”, though it doesn’t show up in most day to day conversations. Liminality is derived from the Latin “limen”, which means “threshold”—that is, the bottom part of a doorway that must be crossed when passing through.  As leader in transition, you are hovering near a “threshold”.


The liminal period is a time to enter the “realm of pure possibility”. This is where MAPPINGS can help.  We invite you, wherever you are... in your excitement and in your uncertainty... to let us join you in this journey.

Our desire is to help you move forward in the process of liminality, to discover the “threshold”, and to move into a greater expression of your God-given purposes.

Executive Searches - Our Philosophy

  • Our Perspective
Pursuing pastoral leaders from other ministries without the input of their supervisor is typically not in the best interest of the universal Church.
Embracing God's ideal timing is especially difficult for executives in transitions.
Leaders will rarely lead others beyond their (own) emotional, relational and spiritual maturity.
Who we become is more important than what we do.
Transitions offer excellent opportunities for leaders to grow in their faith.
God is more interested in our loving obedience than our leadership effectiveness.
Leaders in Transition are sometimes called to do things that make little sense to those who desire to measure the effectiveness of every act.
 
  • Our Purpose
Our greatest desire is to bring glory to God (I Corinthians 10:31) as we navigate Christian leaders and their organizations through seasons of significant change toward the greatest expression of their God-given purposes (Matthew 22:37-39).
 
  • Our (Ordered) Priorities

To Serve Christ and His Kingdom

To Serve our Client Organization

To Serve Ministers in Transition

 
  • Our Principles

God's Glory: We value giving God honor, praise and worship through our wholehearted love for Him.

Confidentiality: We value the trust of those we serve.

Decision Making: We value God's wisdom to place the right person in the right position, for the right reasons, and in the right season.

Transformational Leadership: We value using tasks to develop people (transformational) more than using people to develop tasks (transactional).

Mature Love: We value serving others for their benefit more than our own.
God's Timing:  We value waiting for God to lead.

Accountability: We value working relationships where everyone is willing to be accountable for their own attitudes and actions.

“Mappings International conducted a thorough search for one of our key pastoral positions and did an excellent job of helping us find a great staff member in a minimal amount of time. It not only saved us time and money, but more importantly, Mappings helped guide us towards selecting the best possible candidate for the role we needed. Any church or ministry would benefit from using their expertise in searching for a leadership or pastoral position.”
