139 | How Leaders Lose Their Way: Stay Focused on Finishing the Race Well | CEO of Hope International Peter Greer
In this episode of The Wholehearted Leadership Coaching Conversation, Lantz Howard sits down with Peter Greer, CEO of Hope International and author of more than a dozen books including Mission Drift and Lead with Prayer.
Together, they explore the challenges leaders face in staying aligned with their true calling, how to avoid mission drift, and the practical rhythms that help leaders finish the race .
Top 5 Learnings
1. Mission Drift is Subtle but Inevitable Without Guardrails
Organizations and leaders don’t wake up one day far off track — it happens through slow drift unless intentional practices anchor them to mission.
2. Prayer is Leadership’s Lifeline
Leadership isn’t just about strategy and execution. Sustained influence requires cultivating intimacy with God through prayer as the first work, not the afterthought.
3. Marriage Reveals Leadership Health
The way leaders engage their spouse and family is often the most honest reflection of how aligned their leadership truly is.
4. Leaders Must Finish Well, Not Just Start Strong
Many leaders begin with passion and vision but burn out or compromise later. The goal is long obedience in the same direction, finishing the race with integrity.
5. Alignment Requires Community and Accountability
Isolation is a risk for leaders. Having trusted guides, peers, and rhythms of accountability keeps the heart calibrated to God’s purposes.
