Leadership Thought of the Day: 2/17/09

Posted on February 17th, 2009 by Pastor Jeff in Leadership

Effective leaders hold themselves accountable just like everyone else on the team. Maintaining such accountability involves seeking complete honesty. Skilled leaders consistently receive feedback from those who work above them, beside them and for them. A failure to provide a structure for such accountability will lead to a crisis of character and leadership.

Wise leaders don’ wait for a crisis to establish accountability. They establish structures and relationships that harness their sin and unleash their potential. Ultimately, God will hold every leader accountable.

Do you have someone to whom you are accountable for your private and professional life?


Leadership Thought of the Day: 2/15/09

Commitment

Quality relationships are founded on the rock of commitment, not the shifting sand of feelings or emotions. Effective leadership flows from commitment to the right things. God calls us to be people of commitment, first to Him and then to others. As followers of Christ, the single most important commitment of our lives is to God. Any true and eternal success we experience as leaders will flow from that commitment.
