Mid-Week Inspiration: Wednesday, September 7, 2022
The other night I listened to a major league baseball game on the radio, and the commentators were critical of this team's franchise owner. The lack of leadership was evident in the high turnover in staff and players and the low attendance at the ballpark.
What I heard described on the radio was what John Maxwell speaks of when he talks about the Law of the Lid. The organization's lid is high if a person's leadership is strong. If the leader is weak, the organization is limited. Leadership has a multiplying effect.
Proverbs 25: 3 says, "Like the horizons for breadth and the ocean for depth, the understanding of a good leader is broad and deep."
Our accomplishments are restricted by our ability to lead others.
Take a moment and assess your leadership in your personal and professional lives.
Where do you need to grow in your leadership?
