What I've learned about Leadership.

There is a sense of Peace in my heart as to what God is doing here on the team.
There have been some challenges but God is always the one to remind us he is bigger than a problem or a worry.
We are excited to be going to Sonshine Music Festival tomorrow. It's crazy to think that in less than two weeks we will be back in Denver and this whole thing will be over!

I have learned 7 key ingredients to creating a Powerful Unified Team.

1) It takes clear vision and ONE person to be designated as someone with final say. Everyone is a Leader but there is a need for that Positional Leader.
2) It takes vision from God and a unified connection through personal and corporate prayer and worship
3) It takes being submissive to another, for whats best for the team.
4) It takes true SERVANT Leadership, a leader that comes through the bottom and not the top.
5)It takes availability and sensitivity to God
6) It takes an atmosphere of thankfulness and encouragement
7) If everyone is humble the whole group prospers,
You are only as strong as the weakest person on your team.

I have Loved being here because I get the front seat at learning what makes and breaks a Leader, so that when I get the opportunity to lead a group I will be able to implement healthy tools to keep the group unified.

LEADERSHIP AS A ROPE
The power of unity is a rope with many fibers. The thicker the rope (The more people running the same direction) the thicker and more durable it is under pressure. If the rope if frayed it won't last under the harder conditions. The same goes with a team.

Stay tuned for more updates!!
