Over the next three days I have been dispatched by INJOY Stewardship Solutions to provide live-blogging the ReThink Leadership and Orange Conference.  This has traditionally been one of my go-to events each year.  I can’t wait for this year’s content and the opportunity to share it with you.

Before getting to the content, I want to further invest in you as a leader.  Everyone wins when a leader gets better.  That’s why I created The 2-Minute Leader Coaching Course.  These 11 modules will give you the exact tools needed to grow and develop into the type of leaders your organization desperately needs.

Take your leaders through this powerful 10-part video series and see the following results:

  • Provide key leaders with growth opportunity
  • Give you confidence in decisions being made by your team
  • Establish a healthy leadership development process
  • Develop a leadership pipeline
  • Create a leadership culture

The 2-Minute Leader Coaching Course is a great resource for equipping your team members to fulfill their unique roles and find purpose and meaning in their lives.  This is priced at $37 because I want to get it into as many hands as possible.  Click HERE or the image below or learn more and purchase.

Now on to the conference content:

ReThink Leadership’s final speaker for Day 1 was Sam Collier.  Recently, Sam resigned as Hillsong Atlanta’s pastor and launched Story Church.  He discussed many of the components of that decision.  The following are 14 Must-Read Leadership Quotes from his session on handling scandal:

  1. “It has been heartbreaking to watch an organization from the inside go through what Hillsong has gone through.”
  2. “Definitely mistakes were made. We’re not going to shy away from that but they’re really great people.”
  3. “How you manage a crisis is more important than the crisis itself.”
  4. “In a crisis you must answer what God is truly saying in that moment and trust Him as your North Star.”
  5. “(I chose friendship) because it’s what the Lord told me, number one. Number two, is unless you are on the inside of a scandal that’s going on, you don’t know what’s going on.  Proximity is everything.”
  6. “We’re all one mistake away from being in the New York Post.
  7. “We all have moments we were grateful to God it didn’t come out. Because we’re all broken.”
  8. “If I fail, how would I want to be treated.”
  9. “The greatest threat to success is success. The more we succeed the more we feel we can’t fail.”
  10. “Don’t let your current success blind you from your current blindspots.”
  11. “Just as critical as you are to an organization’s success, you are just as critical to its failure.”
  12. “Nobody in this room is perfect. At times we feel our imperfection can keep us from going where we need to go.”
  13. “You don’t have to be a victim of your imperfection. If you will be humble at every turn with your imperfection, God is going to ride with you.”
  14. “You’ll never be perfect, but you can be humble. And if you are humble, God will extend grace.”

What an incredible day it has been!  I can’t wait for Day 2 tomorrow.

The Top 75 Leadership Quotes From 2021 Part 2 is my latest ebook.  For many entering a post-pandemic environment, leadership looks completely different than the pre-pandemic world.  People are more broken now. They are more uncertain. Fear and anxiousness are unwelcome constant companions. Cultures are more unhealthy. Relationships are more dysfunctional.  Hope seems to be in short supply.  Every day seems to bring a new hacking, natural disaster, or unexpected calamity.

Therefore, the fundamentals of leadership are more important than ever. The quotes in this book deal with the basics of leadership.  If you want to be the best leader you can possibly be, click HERE or on the image provided to download this FREE resource.  The lessons learned from last year, if applied, will sustain you for years to come.
