What is leadership?
It is making valuable contribution and not just occupying a position.
• Leadership is accomplishing a feat and not just accupying a seat.
• They are not people with long chains of degrees but contributors.
• They are men that leave their foot prints on the sands of time.
• The real worth of a leader is in the value he adds, the contributions he makes the feats
accomplishes and the impacts he engenders.
-Deut. 34:10-12
• It is not talking the lead, it's taking the
lead - 1 Cor. 11:1/ Phi. 3:17
• It is not appointment, but an attainment - Heb. 11:32-34
• It is not in the titles we wear, but in the
values we bear – Mat. 24:45-47
• Leadership is not an endowment; but by accomplishment - Heb. 12:1-2/ 1 Cor. 9:24-26
• Leaders are readers and every committed reader is a potential leader - Dan. 9:2/ 2 Tim. 4:13
• Talking and learning nothing is what makes a loser.
• Show me a reader today, and I will show you a potential leader tomorrow.
• Leaders of reknown are commited learners.
Daniel 9:2 Leaders are made in the crucible of books.
• Leaders are learners, and every committed learner is a potential leader
• Leaders are made in the crucible of responsibility.
• Leadership is all about taking the lead, setting the pace and blazing the trail in
one's field.
• This implies that anybody can become a leader if he is willing to fulfil the demands of leadership Mat. 20:25-28
It is hard work that makes highflyers
Deut. 28:1
