Dan Colwin | Moving from Ministry to Corporate

[ep 158] Dan and I go way back. We have journeyed together since 2007 or so when we were in a small group. We have done a lot of ministry together over the last 13 years or so and in the last year we both changed careers from ministry to corporations. It’s a lot. So we thought we would sit down and talk about out experiences. Vocational ministry is all we have both known for our adult lives and now we are both making it in a new and uncharted world (for us). This episode has depth in the experience of difficult emotions and is very practical for those thinking of making similar moves. I think you will enjoy this one a lot and I would love to hear what you think.

DAN’S STRENGTH FINDERS PROFILE
EMPATHY – I don’t just try to understand; I want to understand.
WOO – I want you on the team.
COMMUNICATION – Words matter.
ACTIVATOR – If I encourage you to grow, you’ll encourage others.
POSITIVITY – Why be negative?

THINGS DAN LOVES:
My wife, my boys, my faith, the outdoors, Lego, Marvel (I’m a huge X-Men fan and I love the MCU), and mentoring students.
