Leaders

The use or misuse of position is an important aspect of leadership.
I have known leaders who have been supportive and encouraging, and others who have been bullies. There are also leaders who . . . !!!

Let me say at the outset that I am an introvert with a big “I”. It does take time to loosen up, it does take time to cope with a room full of strangers, it does take time to process questions and formulate the answers. If you are my leader, please wait with me, and do not run off. I know that I’m not the life of the party, but be courteous, do not walk away when I’m halfway through a sentence.


Micah 6:8 (Msg)
But he's already made it plain how to live, what to do, what God is looking for in men and women.
It's quite simple: Do what is fair and just to your neighbour, be compassionate and loyal in your love, and don't take yourself too seriously—take God seriously.

Thank you for your blog. It is good as a leader to see what it is like to be on the other side..

I think a great leader knows that the greatest achievements are conquered from within self. A great leader will always insist and believe in you, but knows when to sty out of sight, but still close enough to make sure you don't lose hope.
