Getting off to a good start in your new pastorate is crucial. This book draws on years of field experience, research, and time-tested methods that will help you to: * understand your entry style, * respect and understand your new congregation's history and system, * assess your leadership style, * know when to make changes, * create support systems, * get through first "pinches," * take care of yourself in stress, * get along with those you don't like, and * celebrate with the search committee. The book includes stress and strain inventories you can self-administer and score on the spot.
