The leader : who can fill the shoes? -- The task : a leader's work The person : a leader's character Encouragement : empowering those you lead Conflict and criticism : how to handle opposition Vision : anticipating the future Change : managing change in your organization The leadership team : developing the leaders around you Creativity : cultivating creativity in leadership Life cycles of leaders : seasons in a life of leadership.
Summary: Most people think they want to be leaders, but what they usually want are the rewards, not the responsibilities; the fun, not the frustrations; the exhilarating days, not the exhausting nights. What's leadership really about anyway? It's about influencing people for good. It's about accomplishing more through others than we could ever do on our own. People are what it's all about, and leadership is helping groups of people to achieve things they would not venture on their own. But leadership is risky, even dangerous, especially in the church. Leaders can use their influence for the good of the people that follow them, or for bad. They can follow the cookie-cutter approaches to effective leadership adopted by micro-chip companies and ad agencies groping for the mighty dollar. Or they can align their leadership techniques with the One who guides us to the "treasure laid up above".
