An important part of improving individually and as a band is evaluating where you are at, where you want to be and how to bridge the gap. As a worship leader not only are you leading worship for the body as a whole but you are leading a band that requires attention, maintenance and effort to make sure it’s playing well, relating well, operating well and spiritually healthy. I thought I’d expose what this process looks like for us, at least on the surface.
I created an evaluation form that all band members and people behind the booth fill out. Here are the questions that I ask.
- Are you doing what you feel called to?
- Describe your current role in view of God’s calling on your life?
- Are you able to recommit to the worship team? Why or why not?
- What area(s) do you need to improve in musically?
- What’s your practical plan to improve in your area(s) of need?
- How can your band leader assist in this process?
- How would you rate the musical quality of your current band? (Poor, Average, Good, Excellent)
- What can you do to help the band improve?
- What can your band leader do to improve the band’s overall quality?
- How would you rate your band’s interpersonal relationships overall? (Poor, Average, Good, Excellent)
- Do you have any relational issues with anyone in the band?
- What has God shown you about worship or anything else through your service on the band?
After receiving everyone’s input I’ll follow up with each person personally and discuss their input, where they are at musically, relationally and spiritually. This is a great opportunity to catch issues before they are issues.
Do you have an evaluation process? If so what does it look like?

It seems like this is a great process that could also benefit with an open question at the end or an area to add anything that is on their mind. Anything else you would like to add, any questions that you think would be relevant on this questionnaire? Something that would open up the dialogue for those meetings. I guess that can also be accomplished in the one on one meetings but might give you more of a heads up. This is impressive though, well done Campos
ahh yes good point. Had that on the last round of evals, but forgot to add to the form. Thanks.
great Kyle … would you consider submitting that to TheWorshipCommunity?
We don't have anything like that so much, but I do have a group that meets quarterly to evaluate/review our music, presence, methods, etc. It's scary getting that vulnerable, but necessary.
Certainly will submit. Thanks Fred.
I love this. Thanks for sharing.
