What is THE Most Important Trait of a Leader?

Amplify’d from bgallen.com

Good morning – would you be interested in learning what is one of the most important traits of a leader?  It has been found to be absolutely vital to effective leadership by both Christian and secular leadership “experts”.

Business authors such as Jim Collins (Good to Great), Patrick Lencioni (The Five Dysfunctions of a Team) and others agree on this point.  Christian authors such Crawford Loritts and Oswald J Sanders also agree that this trait is vital.

The antithesis of this trait is also the cause of the downfall of most leaders.

Humility is key to success as a leader – pride is a sure path to a leader’s downfall.

Click here to read a powerful piece by Patrick Lencioni on this vital trait of leaders.

Remember, as leaders you are called to serve and shepherd – not command and dictate.

Blessings – BG
