Hi Reader,
Ever feel like you're understaffed but still not making progress? What if the opposite is true—that your lack of progress is because you're overstaffed?
In this week’s episode, I sit down with Amy Anderson, principal leader at The Unstuck Group, to talk about why overstaffing is silently holding churches back.
We break down the numbers, reveal why growing churches have 30% fewer staff and 20% more volunteer leaders, and share what it looks like to build a team that multiplies ministry instead of just managing it.
Amy also shares the behind-the-scenes story of leading through sudden loss after the tragic passing of Unstuck’s founder, Tony Morgan.
What does it look like to carry the mission forward when the visionary is gone? She walks us through it with humility, insight, and a whole lot of heart.
If you’ve ever wrestled with staffing, succession, or sustainable leadership, this one’s for you.
P.S. Amy’s offering a free month of access to Unstuck’s Learning Hub—details in the episode and show notes!
