Character DOES matters!
Yes it matters
I was reading this passage this morning and was moved emotionally.
As leaders, we are in an environment where integrity and character matters in every area of our lives.
We are and will never be perfect but there are foundational traits and behaviors we have to strive to exhibit and ultimately BECOME.
People forget and forgive mistakes when they feel that our heart is right but they never forget when they feel that our character revealed issues in our hearts.
Leadership is a heart issue.
Decisions will not be easy and may keep us up at night because of the impact to others and their families.
We have to be sensitive enough to realize when we make a mistake and responsible enough to take ownership of the issue to correct it – even if the outcome has an adverse outcome for others.
In short:
We must still make the decision because it is the right thing to do.
We must always find a way to treat others with dignity and respect.
We must guard our hearts against the misinformation of anger, bitterness or even revenge.
We must press through our disappointment of “How did I get here” and strive to make another and prayerfully a better decision.
We have to develop the capacity to move forward even in the face of conflict, adversity, ambiguity, confusion and fear.
We are the guiding light and the North Star that people crave to follow but cannot often articulate.
People are waiting on us- the leaders to provider hope, guidance and direction.
Never under estimate the power, impact and resolve of you, one committed leader with a passion to transform your environment.
Be blessed and be authentic.
Character DOES matter!
