"LEADERS ARE CALLED NOT TO BE GOVERNING MONARCHS, BUT HUMBLE SLAVES; NOT SLICK CELEBRITIES, BUT LABORING SERVANTS." -Anonymous
Lack of relational wisdom can hurt you and your leadership. Personal acclaim and personal glory cannot make you a strong leader and, also the habits of trying to remind people who you are, can't make you a strong leader either. Leadership is not about the title. Leadership is a position of humble, loving service. Those whom God designates as leaders are called not to be governing monarchs, but humble slaves; not slick celebrities, but laboring servants. We learn that wisdom is reserved for those who humble themselves before the Lord. The wisdom of God is never acquired by self-glory, pride, or any personal acclaim. You can be a weak leader, but if you love your people, they will love you back. It is your relational skills that will make or break you. Lack of relational wisdom can hurt you and your leadership.
