Cultivating Leadership

As CMBA continues to 
build lives, the Lord is also faithful in strengthening 
its governance framework. The entry of new board 
members with diverse experiences has brought a 
wealth of invaluable perspectives and insights to the 
ministry. Each member’s unique background and 
expertise has contributed to a deeper understanding 
of the challenges and opportunities the organization 
faced, resulting in better risk management and 
financial stability.

Moreover, CMBA staff and the board members had the 
opportunity to fellowship with one another. 
They fostered a stronger connection as the boards 
actively engaged in discussions and raised relevant 
questions concerning the ministry. Joy and trust 
were palpable, and the strengthened relationship 
has continued to bear fruit—enabling the staff to 
confidently seek assistance from the boards who are 
eager and willing to help at any time.

The empowerment emanated from top-level 
management to the frontline staff. Through capacitybuilding and a decentralized approach to operations, 
CMBA officers were trained to reconcile and 
consolidate their financial records at the branch level 
while adhering to standardized accounting practices. 
The accuracy and integrity of financial records within 
each branch resulted in transparency, accountability, 
and better relations between CMBA branch staff and 
the community partners.
