    Starting-up a New Resource Global City

    Key Questions and Ideas for Consideration

    The purpose of this document is to provide some key questions and ideas for
    consideration in setting-up a new Resource Global city cohort programme. The
    starting point is to understand the Vision and Mission of Resource Global:

    Vision A global movement of Christian marketplace leaders from every


    nation using their resources and influence to advance human
    flourishing and multiply Gospel impact across all sectors of society. .

    Mission To teach, mentor and connect emerging Christian marketplace


    leaders around the world so they can renew their workplaces and
    cities for the Gospel.

    Key Questions

    Purpose

    ▪ Why have Resource Global in the city? Is there a need?

    ▪ What is the city known for? What are the dominant marketplace industries?

    ▪ What are the needs of the city? What areas in the marketplace and
    community are most in need of Gospel transformation?

    ▪ Are there other marketplace programmes in the city? Are there churches or
    other Christian organisations providing marketplace equipping as well?
    What are they doing and what is their programme like?

    Market

    ▪ What would it look like to have Resource Global in the city? What difference
    would it make?

    ▪ What is the market like? Would there be a demand? Does the church
    community have a good understanding of what it means to be a Christian
    in the marketplace?

    ▪ Would people be interested to join the programme? Good to do some


    market research, sound people off, get their views.

    ▪ What sort of people would be interested to join the programme? Young


    working adults? People from a specific industry?

    ▪ What might the Resource Global programme look like in this city – would it
    be similar or could it have a different flavour from other Resource Global
    cities?

    Support

    ▪ Would there be key organisations that would be willing to support the


    programme? (Could be churches, para-church or marketplace
    organisations). Could there be partnerships formed to roll-out the
    programme?

    ▪ Who would form the Board of Directors/Advisors for the city? Backgrounds,
    diversity, expertise, resources that they bring, etc.

    ▪ Who would be the City Director (and/or team)? What posture and skill sets
    are there - faith background, pioneering spirit, administrative, relational,
    facilitation, teaching, mentoring, etc.

    ▪ Who are potential speakers and teachers? Do they have specific niche
    areas and topics related to faith and work?

    ▪ Who would be mentors? Are there people who might be interested? Do


    they have time? Do they have understanding of the foundations of faith &
    work?

    Key Elements & Challenges (Start-up & Long-term)


    The following considerations are relevant for both starting-up a new city, and also
    the long-term sustainability of the programme in the city:
