Is the pursuit of success or significance driving your quest in 2011? My hope in authoring this post is to have you adjust your thinking when it comes to the definition of success. When people describe you do they talk about what you have achieved for yourself or what you’ve accomplished for the benefit of others?

The reason this is such a great question is that I’ve witnessed far too many executives confuse vision and mission in terms of both definition and application. My own definition of vision is: Vision is knowing who you are (purpose), where you're going (picture of the future) and what will guide your journey (values).

Social and societal stigmas are definitely in play when it comes to love and leadership. The natural inclination of most is to react compassionately when and/or where needed – that is until they stop to think about the ramifications of doing so. It’s as if it has been socialized out of them over time.

It definitely didn’t in my case. What lacked was a clear focus on leadership within a theological context. I think we mistakenly believed that studying Jesus some how translated into competency in other areas. However, since my formal education, I have come to know enough about leadership to actually see Jesus as a masterful leader.

The longer we consider it the more it fits that definition you just outlined. If you forget the people, you cannot have a game changer.

Looking at Dan’s original post, I wonder at his definition of “team” He says, “If ultimate decision making is reserved for the “team leader,” you don’t have a team. But a team doesn’t imply unanimous opinion. Rather, a team is a commitment to work together despite differences of opinion.
