The Gift of Leadership

Summary

Leadership is not what you build, but rather who you build.

Where are the leaders? Perhaps the greatest problem in the world today is the absence of true biblical leadership. The heart of a leader is found in the person who cares about investing in the lives of others over their own personal gain. Great leadership is a gift that, when given, influences every area of our lives. While leadership doesn’t always come naturally, everyone has the ability to become a leader worth following.

In The Gift of Leadership, Andrew Burchfield unpacks what it means to embrace the position of a leader and how to develop the gifts in others. Throughout this book, you will learn how to:

• Accept the spiritual invitation of leadership


• Live out the core principles found in great leaders


• Craft and create your own personal leadership identity


• Find mentors that make a difference in your life


• Manage the emotions and expectations of your leadership


• Build and manage teams that thrive from the ground up
