¨Can a leader truly be humble berfore those they lead? Can one expose their weakness and still lead effectively? How does that effect the team? Does that cause doubt and question in leaedership ability and capability.
These were questions I posted in a recent blog ¨Prize winning Roses¨ the answer is No.
After exposing my concerns about how our team was coming together (rather not coming together) and some members of our team couldn´t get past the age gap and the comment ¨I thought I left my mom at home¨ came to light. It was obvious that my role as leader of this team is not the best I can do for this team…….
Funny how God works, He began speaking to me about a change, I was preparing myself to talk to Rusty…..(Squad Leader) All the while Rusty was preparing to talk to me…..The convesation was easy, a decision had been made and a new leader was choosen.
How do I feel? relieved, freaking relieved…….now I am free to get to know my teamates without fear of being their leader or their mother…..my prayer is that we become friends, family, functional family, loving, trusting, commited family, working together to advance the kingdom…..That´s what I signed up for.
I can´t wait to see this garden in a few months full of beautiful blooms and bold colors.
