Ministry moves at the speed of relationships.
Ten years into his church planting journey, Oscar Perez* talks with me about a leadership philosophy that is informed by the concept of “horizontal leadership,” the opposite of hierarchy. Our conversation is inspired by Gary Hamel’s The Future of Management, published by the Harvard Business Review. Oscar makes a compelling argument that horizontal and collaborative leadership can lead to flourishing churches, ministries, and ministers.
