LEADERSHIP DECISIONS

#Leadership #AncientWisdom #Daily Bible Reading #92

Giving priority to God and his Word in the decision-making process.

What does “God is the blessed controller of all things” have to do with you the leader facing a challenge? You can’t not make a choice. Wisdom from an ancient Israeli king 3,400 years ago: Saul felt pressured to act in the face of an immediate threat (think: cyber threat or the client will choose your competitor if you don’t make an offer today). Actually, he felt squeezed between that threat and Judge Samuel’s warning: “Don’t act until I get there.” Saul didn’t wait, and suffered tragic consequences. I don’t want to be like Saul (1 Samuel 13; quote by Joyce Landorf)
