Loving and Gracious God, you are indeed the giver of all good gifts and we come together this day to seek your wisdom, guidance, courage and strength. Be with us in our deliberations and help us to be wise in the decisions we make for the good of all those who have placed their trust and confidence in our leadership. Give us insight to lead with integrity that our decisions may reflect what is right and good. Keep us from shortsightedness and pettiness. Help us to make decisions that strive to be for the good of all and guard us from blind self interest. Finally, dear Lord, grant us the humility to always seek your will in all that we do and say. All Glory be to you, loving God, now and forever. Amen.

Today O God we ask for your spirit to be at work in our midst, that you might stir up in us the gifts that we need to lead this company/organization with integrity and focus to the tasks at hand. Give us the courage to not only consider ourselves; but all those who are affected by the decisions we make. Help us to remember those who labor on our behalf, our employees and vendors and all those whose livelihood is connected to this company/organization. We give you thanks for our investors/stockholders who have placed their trust in us and we ask for courage and wisdom to be good stewards of both their trust and their resources. Help us in the midst of difficult decisions to have peace of mind, trust in your guidance, and look toward the long term goals of all whom we serve. Finally we give you thanks for this company/organization and ask that you might so guide us and our decisions that we might continue to serve you and the world through the work you have given us to do. In Jesus name. Amen

Start a "time of prayer" in silence. The time of silence should allow people to open their hearts to God and to feel what it is that they need or are thankful for (or both) that day and for any other needs that may be directly associated with the upcoming meeting. The silence should be about one minute in length. Allow another minute for people to express "briefly" prayers of petition or thanksgiving e.g. "Lord, please bless my daughter and son in law expecting their first baby." The conclusion of this time can be closed simply with words similar to the following: "Lord, we pray that you hear these and all the prayers of our hearts this day and all the prayers of all people who call on your love, aid and mercy."

Direct, we beg you, O Lord, our actions by your holy inspirations, and carry them on by your gracious assistance, that every prayer and work of ours may begin always with you, and through you be happily ended. Amen
