Find Your Strengths

The effective executive builds on strengths - their own strengths, the strengths of superiors, colleagues, subordinates; and on the strengths of the situation. Peter Drucker

In order to be all that God created us to be, and to do all that God created us to do, we must discover, know, and leverage our strengths! As a strengths coach, my aim is to help church planters and church leaders learn to use their strengths 80% or more of the time.

Conventional wisdom tells us that we must learn from our mistakes. However, all we learn from mistakes is the characteristics of mistakes. Instead, we should focus on learning from our successes. That's where we will discover our strengths.

Peter Drucker wrote that the best leaders "get their strengths together and make their weaknesses irrelevant." As a missional leader, that's what you must do. This also describes how we must lead our people. Help them discover their strengths. Then help them leverage those strengths on mission!
