The Most Difficult of Seasons
By Cheryl Lee Davis Sometimes the challenges are put on us — a boss asks us to do something immoral, a colleague regularly escapes pain through excessive food or alcohol consumption, team members slip into affairs, or a trusted leader gossips. Sometimes, we bring on the difficulty. Insecurity rules our lives and keeps us from…
Lessons for Leaders: Accessibility
By Wayne Pederson When I first started in management, I bumped into our CEO. For point of contact, I asked if I could stop by his office for a quick visit. He hesitated, squirmed and finally said he was totally booked for the next three months. I was kind of impressed with how busy he…
A Steward Leader's Response to Bad News
By Dr. R. Scott Rodin I read a daily devotion by Charles Spurgeon and his entry for September 15th was deeply challenging.

Leading Boldly and Depending on God
By Nancy Hathaway Back in the mid-90s, my husband Steve and I prayed that God would use us in some way. We had busy and satisfying careers, but were restless. We didn’t want to waste the rest of our lives. Looking back I can see God was changing our hearts. Over time it became clear…
When Stewards Fall: Restitution
By Howard Rich Every leader faces gray areas when it comes to personal and business use of the resources under their care. As leaders, we often receive certain perks, and sometimes those perks can go to our head, drawing us to take what does not belong to us. How do we handle frequent flyer miles gained…
The Only Applause That Matters
By Dr. R. Scott Rodin A bookmark of mine carries a thought that has stayed with me throughout my years in leadership. It reads, “It doesn’t matter if the world knows, or sees or understands, the only applause we are meant to seek is that of nail-scarred hands.” Leaders are exposed to opportunities to generate applause. …
4 Ways to Measure Authenticity
By John C. Reynolds, Ph.D. King David of Israel was not perfect, but he was, I believe, authentic. We, in our roles as leaders today, are not perfect, but I know we each want to be authentic. The challenge of course is that not one of us can declare ourselves to be authentic; this is…
