There was a series of “Stop Talking – Start Doing” commercials. I was actually inspired by them. Instead of looking at the typical people around me to put their words into action, but myself. I had to stop talking and start doing. How many others had the same self-awareness?

Exactly – often we have incredibly talented and gifted people around us who have much to contribute – if we give them the chance.

One reason that introverts make good leaders is that they are willing to sit quietly and listen to their employees, instead of trying to direct the conversation. It is amazing what you can learn when you take the time to actively listen to others.

Very well said. I’ve come to notice a lack of commitment to the corporation from the employee side as well. I wonder if the typical mindset of Profits, Stockholders, and Power first came first or if the employee only looking out for número uno? Regardless it is all based around selfishness (on both parts). It very refreshing to see a company like SW Airlines doing well. I like their business model in respects to how they treat their customers and employees (regardless of my feelings of their new commercials).
As for the lack of an employee mindset in churches, I think it also boils down to selfishness on the part of church members, deacon/elder boards, etc.
This too comes back to the need for a revived church. An additional result of a movement of God will be churches being run from a Biblical mindset and not a business mindset.

What an excellent true story of courage! I was so glad to see this inspiring article. I, too, adjunct at Bethel. I’ve never taught at a more inspiring institution–and I’ve taught for a long time! Thank you for sharing this experience.

Do a WordPress tag search of BE-KNOW-DO, and you’ll see that this is the topic of the month by a few of us. Thank you for bringing this book forward for your follower’s awareness. It is a remarkable book that, although it is based on Army Leadership, has universal applications to any leadership organization. To be a leader of character who knows what must be done, how to accomplish the task or mission, and then move forward to do it.
