Discover why true leadership means having the courage to make tough decisions—even when it means disappointing the people you care about most.

Tod Bolsinger and Markus Watson discuss this quote from Rich Stearns in Ep. 105, Courageous Leadership.

"Leaders have to make difficult decisions.  And difficult decisions require courage."

  • Leaders cultivate courage by making difficult decisions that may disappoint their own people.
  • Adaptive leaders accept that faithfully living out the mission often requires sacrificing personal approval.
  • Great leaders guide people through uncomfortable transformation, not just toward easy change.
  • Leaders strengthen their courage by surrounding themselves with friends, partners, and mentors.
  • True leadership calls communities to transformational journeys, even when the leader personally bears the cost.
