Understanding Congregations by Malcolm Grundy

Understanding Congregations by Malcolm Grundy

Ever since Charles Handy's "Understanding Organisations", there has been a growing body of understanding about how an organization, such as a church grows, changes or declines. The theme of the book is how clergy and lay people can be more effective working together. Beginning with an understanding of what is taking place, including an influx of new adult members, the book offers practical ways to achieve change.

Canon Malcolm Grundy was Director of the Foundation for Church Leadership (until March 2009, when he became a Consultant with Live-Wires Associates). He has been variously Team Rector of Huntingdon, Archdeacon of Craven (Bradford), Director of Training (London) and Senior Industrial Missioner (Sheffield). He is a Consultant and trainer with Avec (Director), Edward King Institute for Ministry Development (Founder Editor of the journal Ministry), Chair of MODEM (Managerial and Organizational Disciplines for the Enhancement of Ministry) and Non Executive Director of GJ Palmer (Publishers of the Church Times).
