Life is moving fast, and sometimes it’s difficult to get perspective. When busyness, to-do lists, projects, and even expectations begin to pile up, we can easily lose focus of our days. Left unchecked, days turn into weeks & weeks turn into a life that is unfocused and unclear. How do we reset? It’s important to zoom out and look at our lives with a new lens.

This week, we welcome our dear friend and Pastor Q’s “twin brother,” Pastor Monté Dillard. Pastor Monté is the Senior Pastor of the First Church of God Christian Life Center in Evanston, IL – near Chicago, and is without a doubt one of the most influential leaders in his community. We discussed racial reconciliation, diversity, and what it looks like to reach across cultural lines with empathy, understanding, and hope. Our hope is that you take on a posture of learning, with an open heart & open mind as you listen to this conversation in full.

The best drummers in the world understand the nuances of timing & rhythm better than anyone. They aren't crashing all the cymbals and slapping the toms all at once. They know when to play, when to rest, and all of the dynamics in between. So it is with our lives, families, and organizations. If we are going to be the best we can be in 2024, we have to establish healthy rhythms that keep everything clicking. You might not be the next big rockstar, but we're confident you can find your groove this year.

As dynamic leaders, we love to move fast and get things done! But BEFORE you move too quickly onto the next big mountain, it’s important to take some time to EVALUATE where you’re at & how you’re doing. These honest moments come from the desire to always get better. Whether it’s with your team, family, or even self-reflection, taking time to evaluate is essential to success.

Sometimes leaders are faced with situations that they can lead through by drawing on past experiences. But what about the times when something in completely NEW, and you find yourself in uncharted waters? Everyone is looking to you to lead, but there are is no precedent and no map for where to go or how to get there. Even in uncertainty, we believe you can take steps in the right direction. With a clear vision, you can prepare your team for the choppy waters ahead. This ain't no cruise ship, and we're in deep, unfamiliar waters! Just how we like it...

If your team lacks trust, it’s quite possible that you haven’t gone first in vulnerability. Believe it or not, vulnerability is a leader’s sign of strength, not weakness. When done appropriately, vulnerability can be a huge asset to foster collaboration, trust, and bonding on an otherwise splintered team. But as always, it means WE as leaders must go first. Vulnerability with stability leads to healthy, growing teams.
