posing the question opens the heart and mind to other possibilities.
Questions can be life transformational and pivotal. Questions can
get us to see what we missed and dream again. Questions may be the
leaders best friend. The past 2 weeks I've had a few opportunities
to meet with people and out of each of those meetings I've asked a
question. For one person it was, "Have you thought about pursuing
ministry?" Two others it was, "What would you like to lead at GR?"
Those questions have opened doors of conversations and possibilities
I would have never seen nor imagined. The leadership base of GR is
expanding simply because of those catalytic questions.
Leaders do not need to know all the answers. In fact if they had to
choose between knowing the questions or the answers the questions
would be more catalytic, more formative, more directional and open
more doors. Perhaps the best leaders are the best because they keep
asking the questions and know which questions to ask. "Where do you
want to lead at Graceriver?" has become a catalytic question with far
reaching answers.
