About
Best Christian Workplaces helps Christian-led organizations set the standard as the best, most effective places to work in the world. Our research-based approach helps leaders increase Kingdom impact by creating engaged, Flourishing Workplaces.
Kingdom Impact Hinges On Employee Engagement
Church employees often feel their voices go unheard, see talented team members walk away, and question whether leaders truly act on their feedback. This trust gap doesn’t just affect morale—it impacts the very heart of your church and its growth potential.
Imagine a church where staff feel valued, motivated, and eager to bring their best. In this environment, teams are unified, your best talent stays, and the mission thrives, driving healthy growth and a lasting impact in the community. Change is well within reach.
Workplace Engagement Matters
Based on data from over 4,000 church employees surveyed in 2023.
The Data Is Clear
With nearly 40% of church staff disengaged, the stakes are high. This level of disengagement often leads to challenges like low morale, fractured unity, and stalled ministry progress, all of which can undermine a church’s mission. Understanding the specific factors driving disengagement within your church requires clear, customized data—unlocking insights that empower you to address core challenges and foster a thriving church community.

“If you want to improve your culture, the senior leadership team needs to be 100 percent on board.. You cannot delegate staff culture. You can empower other leaders to help, but ultimately the senior leader has to be the champion of staff culture.”
