We read the leadership wisdom from David Sparks, Caleb Suko, Chris Peek, and Clint Pagan in part 1 of this series. Here are 3 more people who have shared their knowledge and wisdom in the comment section of my blog. Enjoy,

“When a leader owns the responsibility of the ones they are leading and it is an honor more than a weight; I think that wisdom from above will bring success.”

“All of us have insecurities to some extent. I think this, like other things, in part can be a worked on habit, but it starts with a moral compass within based on Biblical principles. The people that want to get rid of the people they see who have potential or natural leadership qualities are the ones who always fail. Interestingly those same people who always fail never change… The change is God Himself that allows us to live above the instincts of an animal… Only true wisdom is heaven sent.”

“I’d say that balancing risk is another one. Having wisdom to know how and when to push yet not betting the farm… It’s a fine line between business and gambling.”

“When I hear people talking about their dreams and business desires I thought they were really going to do things. Turns out most of them were just talking. Don’t get me wrong, it was what made them happy, but nothing adds up toward a goal faster than action…”

“I would like to add one more point about spending regular time visualizing vividly what it will be like when we have achieved our personal growth plan. This will help to send the right messages to our body to take action.”

“Our positive attitude rubs off on others and it helps us to get people to support us in doing what we want. By being positive, cheerful and friendly, it makes us likable, which again increases our potential to influence.”

“I think when leadership practices are used just for material and selfish gain, there is no opportunity to develop spiritually and if anything, one will just suffer even more in the long term. It’s better to do what you say, and study and internalize spiritual ideas and concepts as a priority and where possible apply these to our business lives.”

“One point I would like to add, which is related to what you wrote about hard work is developing an attitude of abundance. When one develops a mind-set that the world has so much to offer, then naturally one begins to see opportunities everywhere.”

“The other thing that I would add is writing. Blog posting helps me to grow by constantly looking at what I have just learned.”

“One of the things anyone can do today is to change their perspective. Look at your job differently. It may not look as if your strengths are not being utilized but look for the connecting factors. For example one of my main operational gifting is restoration. What does this have to do with owning pizza restaurants? Well I can restore my team mates self image, make food to let family gather and spend time together ext. I use to not see this but my perspective was flipped on its head one day.”

“With my businesses I want my crew to want to work hard for me and to stay around lowering turnover. Speaking positive things into there lives accomplishes this. It is amazing how many people are told they are worthless and good for nothing. It is amazing to watch them grow in a positive environment. My favorite part of leading is showing people there potential.”

“Out of this list I struggle the most with micro managing my team. When I opened my second location six years ago I got burnt out due to micro managing and instead of delegating properly I said fine and gave away everything with horrible communication and I never inspected what I expected. This cost me thousands of dollars. Now slowly but surely this has become a better skill for me. My business has grown and I have no doubt it is because of the law of the lid. If we as leaders micro manage our business or church will never grow it to its fullest.”
