Knowing Others

Is it possible to lead others without knowing them? Leaders must know the dreams, aspirations, hopes, desires, and personal goals of others in order to lead them well.

Then, leaders can look out for their well-being. It has been said, “If you take care of those under you, they will take care of you.”

Nothing is more important than knowing the needs of others and leading in ways to provide for those needs.

Good leaders know this necessity, and spiritual leaders know the greatest need is spiritual.

Interest-based passions are areas we have an interest in combined with a natural ability, often times sports or recreational activities.

Issue-based passions are connected to causes which provide fulfillment, and “give us a sense of purpose,” such as rectifying social injustices.
