Foundations of Leadership
Greetings!
This training was everything I have ever wanted and I never thought that I could receive this types of training in Bible School.
FOUNDATION OF LEADERSHIP
SOURCES OF CONFLICT
“…much of the frustration that leaders face comes from trying to solve what needs to be managed and trying to manage what needs to be solved.” (Ortberg 2008,p.71).
SYLE OF CONFLICT
■FOUR BASIC BEHAVIOURAL & COMMUNICATION STYLES:
“》The direct style(communicate with the Eagle)
》The Expressive style(communicate with the Peacock)
》The Amiable Style(communicate with the Dove)
》The Analytical Style(communicate with the Owl)” (Haddad 2011, p. 36-38).
BIBLICAL PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICT RESOLUTION
■Respond to the situation & behaviors
■Recover relationship and trust
■ Restore to the community of Faith
■Release those who do not respond.
FAILURE AND DECISIONS
” People never do anything perfectly the first time they try it-not in sports, not in games, not in school, and most certainly not in work organizations”
(Kouzes & Posner 2007, p. 199).
RISK AND OPPORTUNITIES
■Dealing with Risk in Leadership E. Gibbs(2005),pp159-173
●RISKS IN LEADERSHIP MINISTRY
▪” Leaders make risk safe, as paradoxical as that might sound. They turn experiments into learning opportunities……Of course, when you experiment, not everything works as intended. There are mistakes and false starts. They are part of the process of innovation. What’s critical, therefore, is that leaders promote learning from these experiences”
J. Kouzes & B. Posner (2012), p188.
LEADING COLLABORATIVELY
○What is collaborative Leadership?
○Why Collaborative Leadership?
○Characteristics of the Collaborative Leader
○ Becoming more of a collaborative Leader
○Who should you collaborate with?
VULNERABILITY OF THE LEADER
“Vulnerability: is typically mentioned in relation to trust…Scholars see the willingness to be vulnerable as one core aspect when defining trust.” A. Nienaber et al (2005).
■ Vulnerability- Source:
1 External Threats
2. Internal Comping Mechanisms
■ Debunking Vulnerability Myths
1. Vulnerability is Courage not Weakness
2. Vulnerability is Fact of life not a choice
3. Vulnerability is seeking solutions not Attention.
4. Vulnerability is about community not individuality” D.K. Williams(2003).
VULNERABILITY IS A LEADER STRENGTH
1. Vulnerability removes pretence
2. Vulnerability establishes original identity
3. Vulnerability creates connection
4. Vulnerability ensures authenticity
Based on S. Klausman(2016).
