His second book, Leading Small Groups That Thrive: Five Shifts to Take Your Group to the Next Level (Zondervan, 2020) shows small group leaders, step by step, how to plan for, launch, build, sustain, and multiply healthy, transformational small group experiences where people grow spiritually together.

His academic scholarship has been published in the Journal of Applied Communication Research, Southern Communication Journal, and Group Facilitation, and the International Encyclopedia of Organizational Communication, and recognized with several awards from the National Communication Association.

Quotes by Ryan T. Hartwig (?)

“If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together. African Proverb”

“A thriving leadership team. Together your team truly leads your church. You establish and carry out vision, set direction, wrestle with thorny issues and come to conclusions, fight for unity, and model gospel-centered and mission-driven community for your staff and congregation.”
― Ryan T. Hartwig, Teams That Thrive: Five Disciplines of Collaborative Church Leadership

“Too often the officially named group is not the actual leadership team. Sometimes no group exists on paper, but one does in reality. On rare occasions, the leadership “group” is largely just one person.”
