One way to consistently make wise decisions is to make as many of them as possible ahead of time. I’ve used this strategy to improve my weekly calendar, my study habits, and even how and when I exercise.
There’s an entire framework behind how I do it, and you can find it in my latest book, Think Ahead. You can get your copy here: go2.lc/YTTA

    I'd love to address best practices for emerging leaders who have the talent and now need to gain credibility as they go into the next level of leadership. Getting rid of the imposter syndrome that is not a product of not being an SME but dealing with self- doubt, the nagging feeling you don't belong at the table.🙏🏼

    Not so much a question.. I would love to hear from successful leaders who battle with mental health or physical limitations. How do do they lead when they don’t feel “equipped” because of their “limitations?

    SO GOOD. I loved the last part about Jesus's example. He prepared His disciples, gave them everything they needed, told them He would always be there for them, and then gave them the most important mission in the world. He sent them out equipped, but didn't tell them HOW to do it. What a beautiful example of leadership! And they all did it differently because God created us all uniquely. Thank you, Craig, for your incredible commitment to your calling and for the excellent, life changing leadership principles you share.

  • @bournebrandi
    @bournebrandi День тому

    Great podcast as always! I have a question though, based on a very recent experience I had in planning/executing a large event. How do you handle it when you equip your people, train them, then delegate a task to them and they simply don't do the task or fail at the task completely and it then it falls back on you to complete? Dont get me wrong, I see a lot of areas where I went wrong in choosing who to delegate where. Lots of learning in my end, the hard way. But how do you deal with the conversation after everything is said and done? Do you continue to trust that person and chalk it up to new leadership lessons?

  • @pr.Jeff.m

    Pastor Craig, this is one of the best leadership podcasts you've ever done. I've painstakingly learned some of this the hardest ways possible over the years. Listening to you spell it all out with such clarity is so helpful and refreshing. Thank you for building up leaders! Can't wait for part 2!
