  • The Quiet Staff Member Who’s Already Halfway Out the Door

    The Quiet Staff Member Who’s Already Halfway Out the Door
    Sep 8 2025
    In this episode of the Healthy Church Staff Podcast, host Todd Rhoades discusses the subtle signs of disengagement among church staff members and how to address them before it's too late. He emphasizes the phenomenon of 'quiet quitting' where staff members slowly lose connection without overtly resigning. Rhoades shares strategies for spotting disengagement early and ways to re-engage team members by asking the right questions and providing clear feedback.• Signs of disengagement include reduced participation, lack of creativity, and brief communication.• Common reasons for disengagement: feeling underappreciated, unclear expectations, poor leadership, unresolved conflicts.• Early identification is crucial - listen for behavioral shifts and emotional withdrawal.• Engage with staff through one-on-one questions about their motivation and job satisfaction.• Consider role adjustments or breaks to rekindle staff members' passions.• Preventative measures are more effective than interventions.

  • You Fired the Wrong Person

    You Fired the Wrong Person
    Sep 5 2025

    Have you ever made a staffing change that was supposed to solve everything, only to discover weeks later that nothing improved? That sinking feeling might be a sign you've addressed a symptom rather than the root cause.

    When terminations miss the mark, the aftermath can be devastating for your church team. Trust crumbles as staff members wonder who might be next. The room grows quieter during meetings as everyone carefully measures their words. Productivity and collaboration decline rather than improve. Most tellingly, that nagging voice starts whispering, "Maybe that wasn't the right move after all."

    Todd Rhodes dives deep into why these misfires happen in church leadership. Sometimes we're fixing symptoms while the root cause remains untouched. Other times, we cave to internal pressure from boards or other leaders pushing for someone's removal. The most troubling scenario? When we avoid addressing the actual power players causing dysfunction because confronting them feels too risky. As Todd poignantly observes, "Sometimes the most toxic culture shapers are not the ones that you fired... they might be the ones that are still on your payroll."

    Recovery requires exceptional leadership courage: owning your mistake, reassessing team dynamics with fresh eyes, and building better filters for future decisions. Remember that terminating staff should be your last resort, not your quick fix. "Firing someone is serious," Todd reminds us, "but firing the wrong person can be a real culture wound." By slowing down and digging deeper, you can make wiser decisions that truly address what's undermining your team's health and effectiveness.
