leadership progress doe
Progress does not occur without change.
leader church realizing
It was while I was pastoring that I began to realize that pastors were not growing churches because they didn't understand leadership because they were not trained, adequate leaders.
leadership people tough-times
Thank God for the tough times. They are the reason you are there - to be the leader. If everything was going well, the people wouldn't need you!
expectations people levels
If we treat people as who they can become, they will be inspired to rise to the level of our expectations.
rivers reservoirs
Be a river - not a reservoir.
hurt maturity people
People change when they hurt enough that they have to change, learn enough that they want to change, receive enough that they are able to change.
people training kind
I do a lot of conferences, a lot of leadership training. For about six or seven years I've been making this statement - every time I make it, I can see people just kind of - it's just one of those light bulb moments.
trying wish succeed
I wish I could say I coined the phrase "failing forward." I do it all the time. I find as I've embraced this approach to business, life, cycling and generally any new endeavor I take on, I've grown more and more comfortable with the possibility that I am not likely to succeed on my first try. And that's ok.
people focus growth
Others are ahead of me. I am continually challenged. My focus is forward. The atmosphere is affirming. I am often out of my comfort zone. I wake up excited. Failure is not my enemy. Others are growing. People desire change. Growth is modeled and expected.
motivational feelings world
The purpose of leadership is to take others to the top. And when you take others who might not make it to the top otherwise, there's no other feeling like it in the world. To those who have never had the experience, you can't explain it. To those who have, you don't need to.
leadership dream grateful
Be generous, be humble, and be grateful when achieving your dreams.
people giving vision
All visions begin with relationships. My relationship with God is where I receive the vision; my relationship with my people is where I give the vision. If those relationships aren't what they could be or should be, on either side, the receiving or the giving out, the vision is going to be aborted.
team wrestling work-ethic
Personnel determines the potential of the team. Vision determines the direction of the team. Work ethic determines the preparation of the team. Leadership determines the success of the team.
opportunity growth progress
I have found progress, personal growth, and new and exciting opportunities in my failure. I've grown more comfortable with the fact that in certain circumstances, I'm the person in the room who knows the least about what's going on.
