Written by the Lead Like Jesus team, an organization founded by Ken Blanchard and Phil Hodges that promotes a transformational leadership model based on following Jesus.
A common temptation is to focus on the areas of our lives where we can achieve personal success and win approval from others. Leading from self-motivation, self-interest, or self-gratification are expressions of fear and pride. In the process, we lose sight of God as our audience, Jesus as our role model, and the transforming power of His Spirit. What motivates your leadership choices? A desire to succeed, a need for human applause, or a desire for God’s approval?
We remember before our God and Father your work produced by faith, your labor prompted by love, and your endurance inspired by hope in our Lord Jesus Christ [1 Thessalonians 1:3]
