An eternal investment

Life-on-life experiences

Leadership Edge Mentoring is a life-on-life relational experience between a mentor and mentee oriented toward a biblically-based vision for Christ-centered, world-changing influence. Whether meeting over coffee or spending time in an activity together, the mentor and mentee have intentional and practical conversations that revolve around prayer, Scripture, and leadership coaching.

Purpose

Our culture today desperately needs Christ-centered leaders with integrity and excellence in all spheres of their lives to impact the world around them.

Vision

The Life Vision Statement is the compass of the mentoring relationship in which the Holy Spirit is relied upon as the Mastor Mentor.

Impact

The long-term result of a Leadership Edge Mentoring relationship is a life trajectory coursing toward God-honoring influence in all areas of life including marriage, family, career, community, and church.

The Life Vision Statement

The Life Vision Statement is the core aspiration of the mentoring relationship, for both the mentor and mentee. By God’s grace, to step forward as God’s man or woman in my spheres of influence to serve His purposes for His glory. The mentor facilitates the mentoring, but we believe that God is the Master Mentor. This belief has kept us from building Leadership Edge Mentoring around an extensive curriculum or around a mentor “dump-trucking” his/her “wisdom” on a mentee. Rather, Leadership Edge Mentoring is prayerfully built around intentional conversations and debriefing key experiences that prepare the mentee for greater influence and impact.

The People

  • The mentor is a committed, mature Christian, who has been trained as a Leadership Edge Mentor.
  • The mentee is typically a believer who is younger and/or less spiritually mature than the mentor, yet already possesses the basic foundations of Christian faith. This can be a student or an adult a season or two behind the mentor.
  • Our hope is that our mentees develop Christ-centered, world-changing influence with a clear vision for their lives. We also hope to instill in them an aspiration to mentor others to have the same vision and influence.

Mentor Training equips Christians to become Leadership Edge Mentors, so that they can fulfill the vision of leaders stepping forward by God’s grace in their spheres of influence to serve His purposes for His glory. We develop the kind of leaders our world needs by engaging students, young professionals and other growing leaders at an age and stage in life in which their most important views on life, leadership, and values are still being formed.

Consisting of three live training sessions, with corresponding independent study, LEI Mentor Training equips you with the knowledge and skills to provide authentic life-on-life mentoring that impacts the entire life of developing leaders. With our Biblically-based content, practical application, small class sizes, and supportive learning environment, Leadership Edge Mentor Training will supply you with the tools you need to effectively mentor others for the glory of God.

LAUNCH

BEGIN YOUR MENTORING RELATIONSHIP

Before being mentored by LEI, I had never really considered having a personal vision for my life and my family. I had also never really given much thought on how to grow. I had especially never considered how to grow as a mentor in order to help others grow for the glory of God. LEI has helped me be more focused on the direction that I’m leading my family and my own personal ministry to accomplish God’s purposes. I find that I am much more equipped to help others explore their own vision and growth. LEI has certainly given me a number of personal examples of what living out a Christian’s faith can look like in day to day life. Most importantly, LEI has fostered many warm and encouraging friendships with other followers of Christ.

Leadership Edge mentoring has provided a tangible vision statement for me to take hold of in everyday life. It provided a definition/model for what leadership is and the competencies to carry it out. I have found a community of accountability and encouragement via other alums at Gatherings. By far, the most significant is that l have personal, honest stories and reflections from LEI mentors on how God has taught them about how to be a Godly leader in their own families, marriages, churches, workplaces, and communities.
