Leaders as Initiators

Reacting is based on instinct and intuition.

Responding requires thoughtfulness.

Initiating comes from imagination.

An atmosphere where people initiate can only come from a place where dreaming is encouraged. Leaders imagine a world that they would like to be a part of, a world worth fighting for. With this vision and all the emotion that gets stirred up in the heart, the leader begins to initiate. They see the issue or challenge that not everyone else sees and lead people to do something about it that was not done before.

Passion sparks initiative, a tremendous focus, belief, desire, and drive. – Seth Godin

    The body of Jesus should encourage and foster an environment of initiative. From my vantage point it clearly fosters an environment of passivity and a spectator mentality. But I do feel a faint, new breeze blowing within the body. Hallelujah!
