Listen Later

Tod Bolsinger and Markus Watson discuss insights on the importance of developing leaders who are skilled in curious listening and creating a collaborative environment where ideas are shared and valued. The conversation uncovers how shifting from monologue to dialogue can not only empower communities but also lead to more meaningful adaptive leadership in times of change.

Tod Bolsinger and Markus Watson discuss this quote from Scot McKnight in Ep 250, The Prophetic Challenge of Deconstruction:

“The evangelical world does not have a culture of conversation.”


THIS EPISODE'S HIGHLIGHTS INCLUDE:

  • Leaders improve their effectiveness by first listening before proclaiming.
  • Sharing leadership with a team fosters better decision-making through collaboration.
  • Engaging in conversations helps leaders adapt to situations without clear solutions.
  • Encouraging conversations empowers groups by promoting shared ownership.
  • Feeling heard validates individuals and supports their faith journey.
