Follows are some study notes from Andy Stanley, the son of Charles Stanley from the book of Joshua on leadership.
*The less you do, the more you enable others to accomplish.
* Focus on doing only what you can do. Don't be a hindrance to others by doing it all so it can be done right. (or so you think)
*Develop leaders around you. Don't hold people back by keeping yourself in the spot light.
*Helping another to succeed is what Christ had in mind for us when he told us to love others as ourselves.
*Remember Romans 12:6-8 tells us that we all have different gifts. My gifts are no better than yours or any less valuable than yours.
you are just full of good things today! Must be doing a lot of reading....... ;-)
ReplyDeleteOutstanding nuggets to pull out and apply! I have definitely seen people who must do it all themselves and think they are the only one who can do it 'right'. Oh, LOL, what am I saying?!!!!
ReplyDeleteOk, so, regrouping, I do this in a school/group setting (used to--it's been years you know--maybe I would do better now). But in other areas, I delegate (prime example: children's musical--I do nothing with set, costumes, sound. . .). Maybe I've grown up a little?? :D
Bet you didn't know I apply these nuggets to myself so completely, hmmm? Thanks for making me think and evaluate, and maybe I'll grow a little more. . .
