About A3.business
A3’s Initiative to Develop Marketplace Leaders
Christ-centered Leaders
For nearly 45 years, A3 has been at the forefront of leadership development. Visionary pastors were our primary customers. But our mission was always bigger. Today we put it this way, “We equip and unify visionary Christ-centered leaders to influence Spirit-led change.” And Christ-centered leadership is a landscape that has a much wider vista than pastors alone. In fact, we believe that Christ-centered leaders in every sector of society are critical to our vision, “A vibrant community accelerating Christ-centered movements around the world.” To see this, we focus on changing the few who change the many.

"A2 is coming alongside leaders to accomplish what God has called them to do in the way God has called them to do it. This is why I have been involved in this ministry for decades.
A2 is not called to transfer knowledge, but to create learning communities. This is what gets me excited.
I am convinced that true partnership always takes place in authentic community. A3.business is committed to this type of community within and across cultures."
Takeshi Takazawa
Speaker, Eagles Leadership Conference
The value of mutuality in a dynamic collaborative community
"Many groups over the years have wanted to partner with us. The reason we serve with A2 is because they know the value of mutuality. Ministry isn't one-sided for them—from West to the Rest. Rather, it is a true partnership where the best from the West is connected with the best from the East in dynamic collaborative community. A2 truly models this form of servant leadership."

What a few weeks I have had! I’ve been in Asia for two weeks, covering three different countries, the first of which included our national directors annual gathering, the second a combined meeting of our international and Japan boards, and the third a visit with my colleagues and friends in another.
My first day back home I went in for what I thought was a routine checkup. As I sat down on the doctor's chair, I quickly learned that this was a schedule for outpatient surgery. Imagine that news while you are fighting jet lag! You can see pictures from my MOH’s treatment surgery below...
