THE SPIRIT OF LEADERSHIP

CHAPTER PRINCIPLES


1. Trapped within every follower is an undiscovered leader.


2. An army of sheep led by a lion will always defeat an army of lions led by a sheep.


3. A converted attitude is the key to a transformed life.


4. We were meant to rule, govern, control, master, manage, and lead our environments.


5. You can fulfill your inherent leadership potential only when you understand who you are designed to be and discover the nature of a true leader.


6. Every human being has a natural inclination for leadership.


7. Most of our attitudes about leadership are a learned or conditioned response to erroneous ideas fostered by our families, cultures, and nations.


8. People’s concepts of their origin often influence their ideas about their leadership potential.


9. The leadership implication of evolution is that those who are stronger—physically, intellectually, or creatively—are destined to lead and control others, while the rest are destined to be followers.


10. The leadership implication of creationism is that, regardless of our stations in life or current levels of skill, we all have leadership contributions to make in society according to our inherent domains.


11. Being made in the image and likeness of the Creator means having the Creator’s nature, which is the spirit of leadership.


12. FIVE MYTHS OF LEADERSHIP ARE:

(1) Birth Trait Theory: “Leaders are born, not made”; 

(2) Leadership by Providence;

(3) Leadership Is the Result of a Charismatic Personality;

(4) Leadership Is the Product of a Forceful Personality; and 

(5) Leadership Is the Result of Special Training.

 

13. True leadership is an attitude that naturally inspires and motivates others.


14. Learning about leadership and knowing what it means to be a leader are two different things. Learning comes from education, while knowing comes from revelation. Learning is cognitive, while knowing is spiritual.


15. Most of us are not leaders because, in our hearts, we don’t believe that is who we are.


16. The leadership spirit is our inherent leadership potential. The spirit of leadership is the consciousness of our being made in the image of our Creator, as well as the attitudes that accompany that awareness.


17. Every human being has the raw material for leadership, but most do not have the desire, courage, or will to use it.


18. True leadership is an attitude of the heart that is birthed by a renewed understanding of purpose.


19. You were born to lead, but you must become a leader.
