forming

In this episode of On Mission, Chris Pierno, Kate Fowler, and Fr. Frank Donio, S.A.C., are joined by Monica Thom Konschnik, Director of Administration at the Catholic Apostolate Center, to discuss a forthcoming eformation resource designed for leaders within the Catholic Church of short-term service immersion experiences.

At one point in a leader’s journey, they were following and being formed by another. The purpose of this formation program is to provide leaders of of short-term service immersion experiences with a retreat-like opportunity to pray and reflect on 1) their own encounter with Christ, 2) their own experience of accompaniment by Christ, 3) formation of a community in Christ, and 4) their own experience of being sent on mission by Christ.

This eformation resources is done in collaboration with the Catholic Apostolate Center and Catholic Volunteer Network. Catholic Volunteer Network fosters and promotes full-time domestic and international faith-based volunteer service opportunities for people of all ages, backgrounds, and skills. As the leading membership organization of Christian volunteer and mission programs, we support and enhance the work of our members through volunteer recruitment, training and resources, networking opportunities, and advocacy.

The forming–storming–norming–performing model of group development was first proposed by Bruce Tuckman in 1965, who said that these phases are all necessary and inevitable in order for the team to grow, face up to challenges, tackle problems, find solutions, plan work, and deliver results.
It is an effective guide for leaders wishing to develop a team, improve team performance or understand their role in team achievements. By providing experiences that allow the team members to move through the stages of development a leader can be assured they will produce a unified team.
The underlying themes of trust and respect permeate this model and all models of team building. Without these two foundational pieces a group will not become a highly effective team.
Building trust is a leaders primary objective when developing high performing teams. In a recent Harvard Business Review article, The Neuroscience of Trust, scientist, author and speaker, Paul J Zak found that people employed at high trust companies reported 74% less stress, 106% more energy at work, 50% higher productivity, 13% fewer sick days, 76% more engagement, 29% more satisfaction with their lives and 40% less burnout.
Leaders can develop trust by respectfully being interested in their teams long term goals, prioritising face to face communications and providing direct and regular feedback.

It's the return of Paul Dechichio. We had such a good time with him we had to bring him back on. Paul runs Tor Johnson Records, as well as Teeth Like Swords Printing, not to mention the many bands he's been a part of (Best Practices, Cyttorak). This week we are discussing the year 2012, and Justin has some problems with his choice of best albums that year. For our full length, we talk about Confluence by the incredibly explosive Ghostlimb (members of Graf Orlock, Dangers); and our EP is the self titled 7" by State Lines (members of Oso Oso).
