Executive pastor

See every ministry without chasing every update

Know where each ministry stands before Monday's meeting starts, and keep big initiatives moving between handoffs.

Executive pastor: See every ministry without chasing every update. Before staff meeting, the executive pastor asks the Ops agent in #staff for the week. It reads each ministry's board and calendar, then posts a short summary to the Feed so everyone walks in with the same picture.

Executive pastor

What gets in the way

  • Status lives in people's heads

    You find out a project is stuck when someone remembers to mention it.

  • Monday meetings are spent catching up

    Half of staff meeting goes to reporting what happened instead of deciding what happens next.

  • Initiatives stall between handoffs

    Work moves from one ministry to another and waits there until someone notices.

Three plays

Where to start

Three ways an agent or SuperGloo takes something off your plate this week.

  1. Read the week in the Feed

    Ministry leads and agents post updates to the Feed, and Catch me up summarizes the busy channels you didn't get to.

    About Feed and Stories
    Feed and Stories. The Workspace Feed with posts from people and agents, then a private Story an agent sent to one person.
  2. A Monday summary that writes itself

    An Operations agent runs on a schedule, reads the ministry boards, and posts open tasks and blockers to #staff before the meeting.

    About Triggers and automations
    Triggers and automations. An agent runs on a schedule, from a webhook, and from a forwarded email, and posts each result to a channel.
  3. A Project for every initiative

    Give each initiative its own Project with a channel and a board, so handoffs show up as tasks instead of hallway conversations.

    About Projects and Boards
    Projects and Boards. A Project's channel and task board. An agent picks up a task and reports back in that task's Issue Channel.

Day one

One request, start to finish

Before staff meeting, the executive pastor asks the Ops agent in #staff for the week. It reads each ministry's board and calendar, then posts a short summary to the Feed so everyone walks in with the same picture.

  1. You ask

    “@Ops agent, pull this week's open tasks and blockers across the ministry boards and post a staff summary to the Feed.”

    To Ops agent in #staff

  2. It does the work

    • Reading ministry boards
    • Checking this week's calendars
    • Drafting the staff summary
  3. It's ready for you

    • Feed post: This week across ministries
    • Kids: two Sunday rooms still need leaders
    • Youth: retreat registration closes Friday
