The Power in Leadership

The contemporary crisis of character in leadership is alarming because, to a great extent, leaders determine the direction, security, and prosperity of cultures, societies, and nations. The following concepts demonstrate the central role of leadership in human society.
leadership in human society.
  • Nothing happens without leadership. Leaders establish government, make scientific discoveries and advances, disseminate religious and philosophical ideas and otherwise foster human culture.    
  • Nothing develops without leadership. Leaders take initiative to implement innovations, build on what has come before, and expand on prior successes.
  • Nothing succeeds without leaders. Leaders develop ideas, carry out endeavors, and keep projects going.
  • Nothing is altered or transformed without leaders. Unless an individual or a group of people begin to think differently or act differently, circumstances usually remains the same – or becomes worse.
  • Nothing is corrected without leadership. To fix errors and solve problems, someone has to take responsibility to see the adjustment are made. Leaders help societies to make a course correction when they have veered onto a destructive path.
  • Nothing advances without leadership. Leaders are enterprising and forward – looking. They are often eager to enhance a society’s quality of life through improve efficiency, greater convenience, and the introduction of new products and services.
  • Nothing improves without leadership. Leaders see potential in situations and conditions where others see no hope and have no vision of the way things could be.
Leadership is therefore key to human preservation, growth, and change. No matter what condition a society or nation finds itself in, it didn’t arrive there by accident. Someone led them there.
Every person on earth is being guided, influenced, or manipulated by someone. Directly or indirectly consciously or unconsciously we are continually being led by those who are our official leaders as well as those who are our official leaders, as well as those who have become our de facto leaders by their influence over us. That’ is why our current problems won’t be solved without a renewed emphasis on the foundational element of positive and effective leadership. Countries, corporations institutions, organizations, department, and so forth will be effective and successful only insofar as their leaders are effective and successful. When leaders in all realms of life make a commitment to strengthen their leadership they will enable their society to improve, survive, and progress.

DON’T WAIT FOR A TITLE OR POSITION TO FULFILL THE PURPOSE OF YOUR LIFE

Image
Too often we pursue titles and positions more than living to fulfill the purpose of our life, thinking we’ll feel good about ourselves when we have them.  “When I make it to General Manager, when I get that senator position, when I get that Bishop title, when I’m the head usher, the senior partner, the lead supervisor…” That’s fine. There’s nothing wrong with titles, but you don’t need a title to do what God has called you to do. Don’t wait for people to approve you, affirm you, or validate you. Use your gift and the title will come. IF David would have waited for a title, we wouldn’t be talking about him today. When he went out to face Goliath, the whole army was watching him. And what’s interesting is that David wasn’t a general. He wasn’t a corporal. He wasn’t a sergeant. He wasn’t even enlisted. He didn’t have a title, a name badge, a uniform, or a single credential. He could have said, I can’t do anything great. I don’t have position. I am just a shepherd. Nobody is celeb

LOOK IMPORTANT-IT HELPS YOU THINK IMPORTANT

Image
Remember, your appearance “talks.” Be sure it says positive things about you. Never leave home without feeling certain you look like a kind of person you want to be. You can usually spot a wrong kids just by the way he looks. Sure it’s unfair, but it’s a fact: people today judge a young star by appearance. And once they’ve tabbled a boy, it’s tough to change their minds about him, their attitude toward him. Look at your boy. Look at him through his teacher’s eyes, your neighbor eyes, could the way he looks, the clothes he wears, give them the wrong impression? Are you making sure he looks right. Dresses right, everywhere he goes. It cost little to be neat. Dress right, it always pays. Remember: look important because it helps you think important and also it’s help you to think big. Use clothing as tool to lift your spirits, build confidence. An old psychology professor of mine used to give this advice to students on last-minute preparations for final examination: “Dress up fo

Your blessing will come to you at the right time

Image
  What God has planned for you is much bigger than anything you’ve ever dreamed. Of God were to show you right now where He’s taking you the favor, the promotion, the influence it would boggle your mind. You may think, as I did, that you’re not the most qualified. You don’t have the personality or the talent. That’s okay. it’s not going to happen just because of your talent, your personality, or your hard work. It’s going to happen because of the commanded blessing on your life. God’s anointing on you is more important than your talent, your education, or what family you come from. You could have less talent, but with the favor of God, you will go further than people who have much more talent. You may not see how this can happen. It doesn’t seem possible. But you don’t have to figure it out. If you’ll just keep being your best right where you are, getting to work on time, doing more than you have to, being a person of excellence and integrity, the right people will find you and the rig
