... especially when I wouldn't class myself a church leader (OK I co-lead a home group but that is all). But I think John Conoley, Chief Executive of Psion, sums up a lot of what I think leadership in any context is about:
"culture eats strategy for breakfast" (BBC)
For all my other thinking on church leadership then simply read the stunningly good (in a "of course, that's obvious" way) The Trellis and the Vine. I don't have many sophisticated thoughts of my own.
Oh, and while I'm here... this is probably as good a time as any other to share another quote on leadership that I've been meaning to write down for ages before I forget it:
Young men tend to overestimate what they can accomplish in the short term and underestimate what they can accomplish in the long term
Tony Reinke says Mark Dever has this on his desktop. Wise common grace advice.
