Dr. Dan Bouchelle, President and CEO of Mission Resource Network, shares with host Joy Dunning about his Crucible experience and the impact it had on him as a leader of other leaders. MRN is a leadership development and training organization that partners with churches and global workers to ensure sustained and impactful mission work globally. Dr. Bouchelle shares how MRN’s partnership with Crucible has been instrumental in this mission, offering global leaders a rare opportunity for self-awareness and personal transformation. Personally, Dan states, “Crucible helped me discover internal obstacles in my life that I needed a breakthrough on. It revealed to me the degree to which I operated out of a sense of pride and control, and I began to see ways I was not functioning well and how that was coming from my fears and insecurities. It helped me get unstuck and prepared me to make some big changes within myself and within the organization.”
