In today’s society we are obsessed with speed, but effective leaders are more interested in strength, stability and sustainability. We want the quick fix, the shortcut, the on-the-spot solution. We want a sermon, a seminar or an experience that will instantly resolve all problems. But real leadership is never the result of a single experience, no matter how powerful or moving. Successful leaders develop their vision and have the courage to make decisions. They take risks and encourage others to do the same. They know how to access the truth and build a culture of ownership and accountability. They possess fearless resolve and stamina and are passionate about results. They keep the organization first and understand that people are their greatest asset.
