Description
Put your Improper foot forward.
Pick up most leadership books and you’ll find strategies for leveraging your power and minimizing your areas of weakness. But slightly than work against your weakness, why not draw from a deeper well of strength? God favors leaders who benefit from the power that comes from brokenness.
Go ahead and take full advantage of your flaws. One of the best leaders don’t rise to power in spite of their weakness; they lead with power because of their weakness. It is their authenticity in limping leadership that compels others to follow them. Improper leaders are successful because they’re not preoccupied with protecting their image. They’re undaunted by chaos and complexity. And They’re ready to risk failure in moving an organization from what is to what will have to be.
If you’re a leader–or when you have been making excuses to avoid leading–find out how to get the most from your weakness. A limping leader is the type of person God uses to accomplish amazing things.
