Three-Dimensions of Leaders

Samson behaved as if he was the only one that mattered. Leaders like Samson have great personal gifts, skills and abilities, but fail to do what the organization needs from one in their position.  Consequently organizations fail to achieve their potential.

Many leaders are like Samuel, who was a good and godly person, but who never achieved organizational synergy by getting effective collaboration throughout all its branches and levels.  

Leaders like Deborah understand the value of empowering people by believing in and trusting them with responsibilities, as opposed to merely assigning them ministry tasks like they are odd jobs.  The Three-Dimensional Leader says “III-D’s master the art of delegation with accountability absent of micromanagement.”  

Rallying God’s Resources

As a church leader, you may be saying to yourself, “People have burned me.”  “I can’t trust them.”  “They learn a few things; get ordained and then leave this ministry to go off and do something else or become a competitor.”  Even though some of what you may be thinking and feeling is true, we need to work in ways that make the body-of-Christ as robust as possible.  

Mission (not me) Matters Most

Want to lead with a compelling Christ-centered vision that people make a commitment to?  Want to be able to invest in your congregation, so they experience continual growth and thus are equipped to accomplish what brings the vision to reality?  Three-Dimensional leadership principles will help those who attend your church to see a vision that goes beyond “I want people to show up on Sunday morning to listen to and admire what I do.” 

Read - Learn - Lead 

Three-Dimensional Leadership achieves body-of-Christ dynamics that continually transforms the people-resources who negotiate the context to fulfill the Great Commission. 

Calling for Change

People throughout the world are longing for change.  Bill Hybels says there is no other organization on earth that can accomplish within the human heart the amazing life-changing transformations that Christ works through His Church.  

Changing You Changes Culture

In the church: 

• people can learn to give their testimonies, which are public speaking skills all sales and customer service people need. 
• former drug abusers learn to overcome addictions, and 
• repentant  drug dealers turn their organizational and business acumen to lawful pursuits.  
• people can learn to run meetings, steer committees, handle budgets, and other activities that enhance their private lives and can create value in the market place.   

Through the church people fall in love with Jesus, and they find something to sing about.  They pick up instruments laid aside long ago, or they learn new ones to express an amazing inward joy and peace that cannot be contained.  

Leading the Church’s Corporate Change Continuum 

Our role as leaders within God’s church is seeing not only where people are, but what God is moving them to become. Our vision for people should transcend them merely coming to admire what we provide on Sunday mornings.  We need to have God’s heart for what they will do with their transformed lives.  

The Three-Dimensional Leader (http://bit.ly/3DLeaderBk) instructs us how to value and assess not only what people can become, but also the process steps that help them get there. 

Reaching Collective Potential 

The Body of Christ achieves robust synergy when our ever developing gifts are deployed into effective church ministries.  Since few do things well the first time we try them, trial and error must be factored into the change continuum process.
