Understanding Three Types of Knowledge in Leadership
Understanding leadership has been a great journey for me. When I think I’ve found the type of leader I am, I discover something new about myself and or in new information learned. Currently I lead a few different teams in various industries. In all instances, I lead teams of individuals that are experts in their crafts.

Effective Leadership Heightens Motivation
Wren writes that effective leadership heightens the motivation and confidence in others (1995). In my experience, this has proven to be true. There have been moments in my career where I've had to work under leadership that made me feel drained and not motivated to do anything at all. Other times, I've been under leadership that made me feel good about myself. During those moments, I didn’t realize how much the leadership had to do with what I was feeling.

Leadership Mantra
Leadership to me is about changing the world. A mantra I stand firm on is "impact one". I believe that changing the world begins with impacting as many lives as I can one by one.

Historical Leadership Thoughts
There is one historical leadership style that I want to research more about and that is the Visionary Hero. This leadership style was captivating. Visionary leaders write out the vision and make it plain. They are relational and inspirational (1995). This is important to me as a leader in my church. I must be both. Relational in the sense of forming relationships with those under my authority. As a visionary leader, the followers respond to the vision the leader has proposed.
