Most people relate to a time when they were misunderstood.

Employees were misunderstood by their employers.
Students were misunderstood by their teachers.
Citizens were misunderstood by governing authorities.

You get the point.

Developing the ability to communicate so others understand is the necessity of leadership. Jesus asked on several occasions, “Do you understand?”

Being understood is directly connected to understanding others.

Instead of wondering why we are misunderstood, we must work harder at understanding others while leading them in the right direction.
