Equipping The Next Generation of Executive Leaders

Dan Reiland has been with 12Stone Church for 20+ years. One day he and his team sat around a table and a thought occurred: “...every one of us were in our 40s and 50’s. We’re gonna blink and we’re all gonna be in our 50s and 60s. And that’s just probably not the best position to reach the next gen.” Realizing that they weren’t able to control time, they focused on what they could control: training up future executive leaders.

The Church is not only in the largest leadership transition in our history, but the “baton” is being passed down to much younger leaders. Dan Reiland and Dan Vander Wal, the new 38-year-old Executive Pastor of 12Stone Church, share their experience of transitioning leadership to the next generation of leaders, including:

• How to choose a timeline for succession planning
