The Institute for Ministry Watch Accountability employs a distinguished team of watching professionals. Each brings unique credentials and an unblinking commitment to watching those who watch.
Dr. Cornelius T. Watchwright III
Chief Watching Officer (CWO)
CWW, M.W.S. (Master of Watching Studies), Honorary D.Acc.

She is the author of the WatchScore™ Urgency Index calibration tables, which she updates monthly or when she thinks of it.
Rev. Thaddeus Overlook-Barnes

Rev. Overlook-Barnes brings a theological perspective to the watching work, asking hard questions such as "But are they watching biblically?"

Dr. Priscilla Heft-Morrow

Her forthcoming monograph, "The Temple and the Clipboard: A Watchfulness Framework," is under review.
