Live Blog From The 2014 Global Leadership Summit – 12 Leadership Quotes From Erica Ariel Fox

In an effort to add maximum value to pastors and church leaders, INJOY Stewardship Solutions has dispatched me to attend the Willow Creek Global Leadership Summit.  During these two days, I will be bringing some of the top leadership lessons from the incredible faculty the WCA has assembled.

The next session’s speaker was Erica Ariel Fox, author of Winning From Within.  The following are 12 leadership quotes and lessons from her challenging session by the same name:

  1. One of my key roles as a leader is knowing how to negotiate with myself.
  2. The performance gap is the distance between what you do best and what you actually do in practice.
  3. A developmental path for a leader is to identify your performance gaps and systematically attempt to close them.
  4. One way to close your performance gap is to look at yourself in a new way.
  5. Each one of us is more like orchestra than a soloist.
  6. The Dreamer – Your Inner CEO.  The Thinker – Your Inner CFO.  The Warror – Your Inner COO.  The Lover – Your Inner HR .
  7. Look for the dream beneath the dream.
  8. Is there a dream in me that I have left behind?
  9. To some high thinkers, moral arguments do not make a difference.  Can you make a business case with these people?  You can make a business argument to thinkers if you want to move them.
  10. People want to know that you care about them.
  11. It is much more difficult to lead if they feel every interaction with you is transactional.
  12. You will not have a top team if one dominant voice talks all the time.
