Alone

One of my biggest surprises in leadership was the loneliness.

The more people you have report to you…the lonlier it is.

The more that is expected of you…the lonlier it is.

The more perfect you are supposed to be (hello pastors!)…the lonlier it is.

and…the lonlier you are…the more dangerous it is.


Ron Edmondson did a great job illustrating these dangers HERE.  Take a peak and let me know what you think.

How are  are you taking steps so you never lead in isolation?
