The Importance
|
We should never underestimate the importance of leadership. Everything rises and falls on leadership.
If an organization is flourishing, their members developing, achieving breakthrough after breakthrough, then you can be sure about one thing: there is a strong leader at the helm of the organization.
On the other hand, if an organization is failing, the problem is the leader of the organization as well. It’s almost never about anything else.
Everything rises and falls on leadership.
And that is why you need to be an authentic and effective leader today.
You need to be the one who would lead your family, your church, or your company from strength to strength. You need to be strong so that your family, your church, your company can be strong.
You need to be the one who makes the difference in your environment. Nope, don’t look to the left or the right. You really need to be one.
History Has Been
Crafted By Leaders
There’s always one man or woman that has been making the difference all these while. Wars have been caused by one leader with ambition; great movements in history were caused also by one man or a woman.
Mother Theresa was one lady that was such a leader. While in her studies, she was really disturbed by the sights of poverty in Calcutta, and she chose to make a difference by doing something.
She committed her life to ministering to the poor and needy and at the time of her death, her organization, the Missionaries of Charity was operating 610 missions in 123 countries worldwide.
It is stories like hers that inspire people to see that no one is too insignificant to make a difference in this world.
Yet there are stories of leadership without morals; horrifying stories of Adolf Hitler and how he had an ambition to make the Germans the strongest race on Earth, and started the bloodiest war history had ever seen.
Make no mistake about it, history is crafted by men and women of influence.
And more and more in today’s world, we see the importance of leadership. We need leaders that are not just capable, but leaders with strong, firm values.
The corporate scandals of the early 2000s and the recent Wall Street meltdown has been a failure of corporate leadership; a failure of integrity and accountability.
But being a leader is not just something that we can be overnight. Being a leader is a commitment to growth, and to willingness to bear the responsibilities that come with leadership.
And you need to be ready to be one.
