Actually, the lecture confirmed my understanding of Leadership.
-
To me, leadership is the ability to get others to want to follow. Some leaders do this naturally while others have to actively develop and cultivate that skill.
-
My understanding of leadership has always been the ability to encourage people to do more than they believe they can, whether that’s in ministry or just in life in general.
-
Leadership is an influence, an empowerment in a person or persons lives. Leadership requires a lot of selflessness.
Leadership is a powerful position. Seek God in this position always…and do not abuse any leadership position. I believe this to be very important. -
Leadership is anywhere you have influence. I have always seen my role as mother, neighbor, employee, church member, or friend as a place where I have influence. Whether I was assigned formally to lead, or other people are watching what I do, I have the opportunity to lead by example.
