The Impact Course // Keys to Effective Leadership

What is the source of our strength? Where do we find the capacity to overcome obstacles and challenges in life? How can we become sources of life, encouragement, and inspiration in those around us?

The answer to all of these questions and more is rooted in discovering a deeper and more complete perspective on God's nature and character, and fully grasping everything that it implies about who we are as individuals and how we related to one another in community.

What Others Are Saying:

“Wendy Good, and the IMPACT Course, has taken my good teams and turned them into high performing teams. Wendy is without question one of the prominent Leadership Coaches in the country. She displays the unusual ability to empathize deeply while guiding a conversation into the deep places of transformation along the leadership journey. 

In addition, she’s a quality leader in her own right. Wendy has built a business and helped multiple not-for-profit and NGO leadership teams navigate the sometimes mirky waters of team conflict, resolution, and restoration. She’s also a gifted communicator with an earnest passion for people to live at their fullest potential. Her recently developed personal growth material (the IMPACT Course) is practical and transformational. We’ve used it the last few years with our leadership teams and have seen profound growth for our leaders as well as a marked upgrade in our organizational culture.

The biggest impact for me with this course was Journey Mindset. I’ve known about it for years but there was a big adjustment with the focus on it this year through the IMPACT course. I’ve had more patience with people and the process of the journey. I’ve led this organization for 20 years and I’m learning the value of the ‘white space in-between.’ There are so many things God is doing in that time. This has helped us as staff and an elder team to value and cultivate those times. It has made a huge difference in our culture. God is also working with me on redefining success. I’m significance motivated so it’s an ongoing process.”

     - Keith Spurgin, Lead Pastor

Overall, the biggest take away in this process has been the way this forced me to think through and live into all the key values we profess and applying them in my life intentionally. Now I think and live in these values and skills. The Impact Course has shifted my focus from an obsession with success and failure to the small, yet hugely significant, steps of the discipleship journey itself.

     - Brett Tilford, Campus Pastor

My core team is closer knit as a result of this training. My leaders are interacting with people completely differently. And now, when there’s a hiccup, instead of getting frantic or mad, our priorities are different. We’re learning how to talk with people positively and redefine success.
