How do Dr. Ward’s definitions of leadership, ministry, and calling compare with your own?
-
In short, leadership is guiding people or a person towards a specific purpose or goal.
-
Leadership has been something that individuals tend to earn. I have seen many people in roles meant to be leadership positions that failed and some that have risen to the task from the bottom. I also think that different situations call for different types of leadership. The leadership I exercised on the fire grounds is way different then what I did as a manager of a retail store. Knowing what is needed is always about listening to GOD
-
Traditionally I have viewed leadership as being in the position to direct or guide others, whether for negative or positive purposes. I have often equated leadership with the words “responsibility,” and “example,” in conjunction with the concept that everyone submits themselves to something or someone greater than themselves
-
Leadership is showing others by example. Helping them to learn & grow. Even in hard times
-
For me leadership has always been synonymous with influence. Leaders/Influencers have an incredible magnetism and authenticity that pulls people into their orbit and arrests their attention because of their genuine concern and trustworthiness.
