SLP380 - How To Lead In The Marketplace and In Your Community

We began last week talking about the 4 quadrants or pillars of Leadership. * Personal leadership * Family leadership * Community and civic leadership * Vocational leadership or influence In this episode, we look at the importance and power of community involvement, and how your JOB/CAREER positions you for significant influence in the marketplace. What does it look like for a man, for a woman, for a young person to be engaged in impacting the culture around them? What does it mean to exercise leadership and influence in culture, government, neighborhoods, and the business arena? Let’s explore this together.

SLP379 - How Personal and Family Leadership Determines Your Legacy

Leadership IS influence … and influence is everything. Mine and your ability to impact the world around us is directly proportional to the effectiveness of our leadership. Leadership, however, is not a linear thing. There are angles and insights and yes, BLIND SPOTS! What we need is a 360° Leadership Approach. That’s what we are talking about in this session; “The 4 Pillars of Personal Leadership”.

SLP378 - Leadership, Influence, and Why The World Needs You

This session represents the first in a new series on Leadership and Strategic Influence. My intention is to challenge you to accept the challenge to LEAD your generation. You see, I want you to know that the life you are currently living is NOT all you can have. The circumstances taking place in your personal world, and the world around you are the result of someone’s leadership … maybe not your own. Someone has determined that this is where you should be, and because we are all people pleasers in one way or another, we tend to GO ALONG to GET ALONG. Well I am here today to say that is not going to cut it. It is my desire today to shake you up, and call you out. In this NEW series, we’re going to look at LEADERSHIP, Influence, and Why the World Needs YOU!

SLP377 - What To Do When Relationships Change

Relationships are dynamic, and we’ve established in our last session that some relationships are not meant to go with you to your next level. In fact, when dealing with relationships, we must understand the season we are in, and where each relationship fits in the overall plan of God for our lives. Here are some questions we will look at in this episode: * How do we navigate changes in relationships? * Are all relationships meant to last for a lifetime? * What do you do when a relationship is TESTED? * What do you do when a relationship’s season has come to an end * How do we steward the transitions in relationships from one level to another. Today, we look at the inevitable testing and change that WILL come to every relationship, and how you can steward it in a way that produces a positive and Godly result.
