Curator & Presenter: Ken Howard (FaithX). Guest Presenters: Spencer Burke (HatcheryLA) and Toby Rubin (UpStart Bay Area). Weds | Nov 18 | Afternoon Session Author, extrapreneurial faith leader, and church futurist, Ken Howard, led a curated discussion of the fertile ground that lies at the boundaries of faith and business. He was joined by entrepreneur and community innovator Toby Rubin, of UpStart Bay Area, and innovator and author Spencer Burke, of HatcheryLA. Do business entrepreneurs employ faith? Can faith leaders be entrepreneurial? How are faith-based startups and business startups alike? How are they different? What practical lessons can each learn from the other? These are just a few of the questions Ken and his guests will be discussing at this first-of-its-kind program at the LeanStartup Conference. Brief audiovisual presentations will be followed by interactive discussion as presenters discuss questions fielded and framed by the curator from those submitted by participants.

Hinweis der Redaktion
- Why a panel on borderlines? Both kinds of organization can learn from each other. And what takes more faith than a start up
- What’s different about a curated discussion? A curated discussion is like a panel discussion on steroids. Brief, targeted discussions by expert panelists. Questions upvoted from the participants. Discussion questions and responses curated by a strong moderator: able to frame questions and responses to them.
- Consider the forces at work… Like startups, today’s churches and faith communities live in a chaotic the intersection of escalating uncertainty and accelerating change, within and without. (Just like startups) Examples:
- Change and uncertainty driven by: Increasing rate of fragmentation into new sects Increasing dissatisfaction with the influence of religion in society Increasing numbers choosing none or done on the above on religion surveys Increasing numbers identifying a spiritual but not religious Decreasing membership Decreasing attendance (weekly is the new monthly) Decreasing belief in God Decreasing confidence in chosen faith or denomination
- Change… All faiths fracture… Christianity’s no different. First slowly: 1,600 denominations, 1,900 years. Then it went exponential, jumping to 45,000 by 2014. A singularity. (And we’re beyond the event horizon.)
- Driving down: Members per denomination: 18,000 by end of century Members per worship center: 64!
- Black hole: business model of denominations is unsustainable in any form Wormhole: business model for worship centers unsustainable in current form: time for a new paradigm
- Easy to see a chaotic environment and give up. But the chaordic space, the intersection of chaos and order, is actually were creativity and transformation starts.
- Been exploring Lean or lean-like practices faith communities are adapting or creating
- Lean, transcendent vision creates flexible, durable, self-guiding culture that can outlast its founder… from startup to maturity… Minimum Viable Belief.
- Getting outside the worship center means testing our hypotheses about two communities: The community inside the worship center (inside context) The community outside the worship center (outside context)
- Learning what God is trying to tell you about your inner and outer communities: Indirectly: through demographic and lifestyle analysis (e.g., Mission InSite) Directly: through face-to-face identification of strengths and needs (e.g. Asset-Based Community Development)
- By digging beneath “What” you do and “How” you do it (which are always based on assumptions), to “Why” you do it.
- After you’ve tested your assumptions, design a minimum viable program (or ministry) that is as simple as you can make it but contain the essential features. This is tricky for two reasons: Distinguishing between “gotta haves” and “wanna haves” Balancing the needs of the inside community and the outside community.
- Everything revolved around our MVB. A cycle of experimentation: ADAPT… APPLY… ASSESS… Which we called Rapid Iteration Programming (RIP)… to remind ourselves it was okay to bad ideas die.
- Get Lean by stewarding: Gifts & Skills Assess strengths Match Positions People Proactive placement within 6 weeks Learning how to lead and manage without money. Time Clear Vision & Goals Clear delegation Clear, quick approval Effort Define & Communicate Good Enough Model Good Enough Businesses could learn from this!
- Seeking to find bring together people, programs, and organizations in new ways that are multiplicative rather than additive. Seeking to connect with and resource other organizations of complementary vision and purpose in order to succeed together. Defining community not by the boundaries that separate you from others but by what (or who) you seek in common at the center.
- And for those of us doing this work, we have no choice but to pursue our passion for re-designing and re-defining non-orthodox Jewish life in America because we believe that Judaism—just as Christianity, Islam, Buddhism and others-- offers a powerful and proven framework for finding answers to the enduring questions that face humanity as we strive to lead fully realized lives.
- Destruction of 2nd Temple—end of temple Judaism—rabbinic Judaism Enlightenment—introduction of streams—innovations of conservative and reform Judaism, renewal Holocaust-Israel and the building of new institutions for safe places of belonging Now-assimilation---Jewish experience must be meaningful, we belong everywhere now.
