Leadership is liberating people to do what is required of them in the most effective and humane way possible.

We can teach ourselves to see things the way they ARE. Only with vision can we begin to see things the way they CAN BE.

A friend of mine characterizes leaders simply like this: Leaders don't inflict pain. They bear pain.

When trust permeates a ministry, great things are possible, not the least of which is an opportunity to reach the ministry's potential.

We talk about the quality of product and service. What about the quality of our relationships and the quality of our communications and the quality of our promises to each other?

We are alone, absolutely alone on this chance planet; and amid all the forms of life that surround us, not one, excepting the dog has made an alliance with us.

Leaders should be able to Stand Alone, Take the Heat, Bear the Pain, Tell the Truth, and Do What's Right
