When the staff of Gateway Church in Dallas grew 25% in one year, there was good reason for excitement—and well-founded concern. As its ministry grew, something changed. Gateway realized if they kept adding staff without protecting their DNA, the culture they loved would be diluted.
Today we have the pleasure of talking with associate senior pastor Allan Kelsey, who shares how Gateway put rubber to the road to maintain their cultural DNA in the face of tremendous growth. Tune in to our talk today to learn a couple of the key practices that have helped Gateway create a healthy culture and become a Certified Best Christian Workplace:
- Making a commitment to continuing education
- Intentionally investing in and empowering staff relationships
