Though the qualities that qualify a leader can be numerous, there is one quality if lacking would certainly disqualify one as a true leader. And that is a sincere desire to serve. This service can come in many ways but most importantly it is having a genuine concern for people.
It's very tempting as a leader to fall victim to self-gratification with all the superficial accolades and tributes given to leaders. But true leadership involves unselfishly caring for people. Taking on the responsibility of enhancing someone's welfare is a high calling indeed and should not be taken lightly.
Whatever area of leadership you may find yourself in, if you don't possess a sincere concern for others and those around you, you're failing as a leader. True leaders not only want what's best for their followers but anyone in need.
We're all cultivators in God's vineyard which spans far beyond the walls of a church building. But reaches wherever there is a need to minister to lost and troubled souls.
"My Brother's Keeper" is dedicated to providing Godly principles for becoming a better leader and understanding that one main qualification for becoming an effective leader is to have a "Servant's Heart".
