encourage the exploration of scripture
A few days ago I finished Patrick Lencioni’s latest book, The Motive (2020, Jossey-Bass). As an unabashed Patrick Lencioni junkie, I read and recommend all his books. Patrick's concepts and tools form the basis for many of my organizational consulting services as I find they typically apply - on a one-for-one basis - to most churches. Patrick is also a dedicated Christian, so I like that too. Let me summarize The Motive for you (spoiler alert). In comparing “Reward-centered leadership” to “Responsibility-centered leadership”, Patrick argues that the most important and relevant activities any company’s CEO can engage in relate to the leadership and management of his or her staff team. But these difficult responsibilities are exactly what many CEOs are pre-wired to “delegate, abdicate, or ignore” (p. 139).
