  My understanding of leadership has always been the ability to encourage people to do more than they believe they can, whether that’s in ministry or just in life in general.

  Leadership is an influence, an empowerment in a person or persons lives. Leadership requires a lot of selflessness.
  Leadership is a powerful position. Seek God in this position always…and do not abuse any leadership position. I believe this to be very important.

  Leadership is anywhere you have influence. I have always seen my role as mother, neighbor, employee, church member, or friend as a place where I have influence. Whether I was assigned formally to lead, or other people are watching what I do, I have the opportunity to lead by example.

  My understanding of leadership is being able to empower people, especially in areas in which they are experts.

  8 June 2022 My understanding and definition of leadership partially comes from my U.S. Armed Forces experience as a Commissioned Officer. The Commission as structured for centuries gives Authority ( Influence) to me; to cause those subordinate to my Life experience and/or Didactic education to exercise their duties to my desires–as long as legally I am not compelling them to do something Illegal, Immoral or Unethical. I also, in recent times; have regarded leadership;through the lens of being a ‘disciple’ of another–that is-a Follower of another;in carrying out whatever the mission may be.
