How Leaders Are Built
Mark 3:14-15
“And he appointed twelve, so that they would be with him and that He could send them out to preach, and to have authority to cast out the demons.”
A Spiritual Environment
A Relational web
An Experimental context
Transformational context+ development = the process of leadership development
Five Specific Areas for Leadership Expansion
Security of the Leader
· Understand who you are in God
· Your security will expand
· Insecurity will be cancerous and will spread to the people around you
· Second guessing can hinder your credibility
· The need to control and have your hands in everything doesn’t allow others to develop
Training Others to Exceed You
· Passion to help others grow and go beyond what you have accomplished
· Mentoring others and the finding mentors in your life will only help you and others grow around you
Passion for On-Going Learning
· What are my strengths
· What makes us unique
· Believe in others
Humility and Willingness to Repent
· Knowing where we have come from
· Going back and asking for forgiveness/ we all fall short
Articulating the Vision with Clarity
· Know and be clear of what God wants you to do.
Alex I know exactly what you are going thru. I walked down this wonderful road with the love of my life for 36 years. All of the sudden without any warning GOD took him home. July 1th is going to be a year since my husbands death. I am still walking that road. My friends let me take my time to cry to just be you know. I never planned to go on by myself specially since I’m so sick. My sons help but it’s not the same. you need that one on one personal time with that person that only understands you.
Family is great children are a blessing they are going thru the same pain but your hearts pain is only yours. It was a while until I heard the LORD again and sometime I still have a hard time hearing him. Take your time allow yourself your time. You will hear him again. Let your feelings out by any means.
If you ever need a shoulder that will understand give me a call. You guys have my number.
Much love and many blessings.
