How do Dr. Ward’s definitions of leadership, ministry, and calling compare with your own?

What I understand about leadership is a leader serves people, disciples people, influence people, and empower people. Jesus was the perfect example of an effective leader. He came to serve not to be served.
-
Someone who observes and care about the people in their team, and step in to assist them to reach the team’s goal, their potential as well as their wellbeing.
-
My understanding of leadership is influencing others toward a common goal.
-
I always felt it was modelling a behaviour or teaching something or serving others, taking care of others, helping, supporting, making a difference. (I like the more-succinct definition of “influence” :))
-
Again, due to the churches I was raised in as a young person, leadership seems to have been relegated to adults that were involved in specific roles within the church, i.e. Sunday school teachers, pastors, deacon, etc.
