A leader:
- 1.Understands their first and greatest priority is to their people.
- 2.Grants authority that is equal or greater to the responsibility given.
- 3.Fairly applies criticism and encouragement to better their people, building them up, never tearing them down.
- 4.Clearly defines expectations that are realistic for that person’s ability and the project at hand.
- 5.Supplies the resources needed to achieve responsibilities with pride.
- 6.Inspires people to use their strengths and to rely on others for theirs.
- 7.Expects more from people than they think they can give, but not more than they are capable of giving.
- 8.Knows how to laugh and never takes themselves too seriously.
- 9.Understands the relationship and application of grace and justice.
- 10.Protects their people no matter what the cost.
God, help me be a leader that is a reflection of You for all to see. A leader who leads with fairness, integrity and grace. Take away my pride and replace it with humility, filling my heart with compassion and understanding for those who I lead. Grant me the wisdom needed to make difficult decisions that are not popular but that are right according to Your Word. Allow me to lead in a way where You can use me to change lives as only You can. Amen.
