LEADERS AS AGENTS OF CHANGE THE LEADER IS... The one who aligns core motivations to Christ and Christ’s glory The one who clarifies need with vision based on the purpose of God The one who helps others understand and embrace godly opportunity with clear communication The one who focuses cooperative teamwork with a clear view of church unity and joy in God The one who smooths transition with wisdom and the affection of Christ The one who absorbs angst with prayerfulness, compassion and kindness
