Effectively Confront Leaders

Learn how to address issues in a healthy, biblical way.

Confrontation might be the most dreaded, disliked thing about relationships. But it's the thing that helps relationships and people grow, change, and get better. It's also inevitable. After all, two people, no matter how similar they seem, will disagree on something at some point. Great leaders face their fear of confrontation and head into it with humility and an eye on restoration.

As you lead leaders in your ministry, you'll undoubtedly run into times where confrontation is necessary. This Training Tool will give you step-by-step instructions and valuable tips for confronting tough issues with your leaders in a healthy, biblical way.
