Gloo Partners with Carey Nieuwhof Communications

In a significant move for faith-based leadership resources, Gloo has announced a strategic investment in Carey Nieuwhof Communications Limited (CNCL). This partnership aims to strengthen the developmental tools available to church leaders and ministry heads, empowering them to thrive in today's rapidly changing landscape.

As a key player in connecting the faith community, Gloo's investment will accelerate CNCL's offerings, which include a prominent podcast that ranks in the top 0.1% globally, diverse digital training products, and a bustling community for over 1,700 pastors and other leaders. Carey Nieuwhof, the founder and CEO of CNCL, is a recognized author and pastor, whose work has been pivotal in enhancing leadership capabilities among church leaders.

Carey’s platforms not only facilitate vital discussions around relevant ministry topics, but they also feature contributions from influential figures like Max Lucado, Craig Groeschel, and even business leaders such as Seth Godin and Dave Ramsey. These collaborations create a rich educational environment that addresses pressing issues in contemporary ministry settings.

Brad Hill, Gloo's chief solutions officer, expressed enthusiasm for the enhanced partnership, stating, "For many years, Carey and his team have helped Gloo communicate the right messages to the right leaders. This investment is a natural extension of that relationship, aiming to expand the reach and impact of Carey's valuable insights and resources."

One of the primary goals of this investment is to broaden the distribution of CNCL's digital courses and integrate them into Gloo's workspaces. This move will also offer a greater platform for initiatives like the State of the Church and Back to Church Sunday, which greatly benefit from CNCL’s training modules.

Carey Nieuwhof articulated that the partnership holds tremendous potential, stating, "There is a very short list of organizations with whom I would want to collaborate at this level. The Gloo team genuinely cares about the Church and its leaders, and they have been one of our closest partners for several years."

The once-challenging environment for church leaders continues to evolve, with Gloo helping to bridge gaps through innovative solutions and in-depth support. Their mission revolves around enhancing the leadership capability within faith communities, thus fostering an ecosystem where churches can flourish and serve better.

The integration will also see CNCL’s notable products, such as The Art of Preaching, At Your Best Course, and The Art of Pastoral Succession, gain increased visibility through the Gloo Discover marketplace, further enhancing their reach and engagement.

Ultimately, the collaboration between Gloo and CNCL is poised to redefine how faith leaders approach their roles, providing them with the necessary tools, community, and insights needed to not just survive but thrive in their ministries. As both organizations work hand-in-hand, they set a precedent for what the future of faith leadership resources can look like, paving the way for more effective and impactful church leadership across the globe.
