For five years, Alban Institute senior consultant Susan Beaumont
has been giving voice to the organizational and leadership demands
of large congregations. Through her work, she has identified five
basic leadership systems that need to stay in alignment for the
large church to function well for its size: clergy leadership
roles, staff team design and function, governance and board
function, acculturation and the role of laity, and forming and
executing strategy. She has also learned that these five systems
operate with some important but subtle distinctions in what
Beaumont calls the professional church (400-800 in worship
attendance), the strategic church (800-1,200), and the matrix
church (1,200-2,000). Often, she has discovered, problems in a
large congregation are related to the fact that one or more of the
five systems is inappropriately structured for the size of the
congregation. In other words, the church isn t acting its size.
Beaumont is invested in helping large congregations 'rightsize'
their leadership systems to better serve their ministry context.
This book articulates why size matters and how it matters in the
world of large congregations. It is written for anyone who wants to
better understand the leadership and organizational dynamics of the
large church anyone seeking to understand the challenges of leading
from inside the large congregation.
