Expired YWAM Caribbean 2023 B2B Leaders Gathering

Lead Yourself before others

What is B2B?

B2B is a training program for emerging leaders.  The course has the same values as the 6-week Leadership Development Course but just gives a taster of some of the main content. The course is to help launch you into leadership if you haven’t had much experience or help you to evaluate and develop as a leader if you have some years of experience. It’s an intensive time set aside for anyone who wants to explore their leadership potential. It’s designed for those who have a desire to grow as a leader themselves in order to equip others.

The B2B training will give you practical steps to develop you as a leader. There will be an interactive teaching style with many types of activities used for maximum learning. Peer groups, mentoring groups with experienced leaders, one-to-one help in dealing with issues, times of worship, ministry, and experiencing God together. Altogether, it will add up to a leadership experience that will impart values as well as insight and understanding

The B2B training will be facilitated by Stephe and Rite Mayers, along with leaders from the region. Topics include:

  • The starting point – my passion for God
  • My leadership – character, personality, and gifting working together to produce an anointed leader
  • How I can help others to grow – in mentoring, spiritual formation, and vision
  • My task in getting the job done – the skills and anointing needed to develop an effective team and strategize an effective, fruitful ministry

Each year the B2B training has a specific theme, the theme for this year is “Embracing Forgiveness”.

Whether you are just stepping into a leadership role or have been leading a team for a few years, stepping into staffing a DTS, or on staff in some other capacity, you will benefit from the course. Come to grow, come to go!

Note: This course qualifies for U of N credits.
