Every ministry is guided by a unique collection of beliefs and assumptions (worldview) of the senior leadership. We call this Organizational PERSPECTIVE.
PERSPECTIVE summarizes your worldview of God, people, authority, role of the church, spiritual maturity, leadership, success, measurement, debt, planning, etc.
PERSPECTIVE, in our opinion, is foundational to everything else, including purpose, priorities, principles and provisions.
Because PERSPECTIVE is so critcially important to decision making, part of our initial work with you will be to help you understand, own, and articulate your unique collection of beliefs and assumptions to those you are seeking to influence.
Is your PERSPECTIVE...

Above the Line Leadership: (see below)
MAPPINGS International has developed a unique and powerful approach to charting the course for personal and organizational leadership. Since 1989, we have used a philosophical framework originally developed by William Frankena, Ph.D. More recently, MAPPINGS has implemented its own Above the Line © leadership model that is successfully serving boards, staff and volunteers.
Over the years, we have observed a strong correlation between leadership teams that give significant prayerful consideration to “above the line” ingredients and ministry organizations that bring consistent, positive, life-giving, missional impact.
Conversely, MAPPINGS has observed how leadership teams that give little consideration to “above the line” ingredients tend to be the most frustrated (and the most frustrating), resulting in high turnover, never-ending conflict, mission drift, and minimal, positive impact.
MAPPINGS International gives significant time and energy to Above the Line leadership development.
