In this episode, we are diving into the topic of trust and low-trust in your organization and the effects both positive and negative it has on your organization. We are also going to look at 4 ways we can build trust. As the backbone of our conversation, we will be referencing Stephen Covey's The Speed of Trust (https://a.co/d/00yPrNp).

Today, we're talking about something that is oftentimes overlooked and so often you don’t even think about this as keeping organizations stuck. 

It's not having too many ideas.

It's not being bombarded with too much feedback.

The enemy, my friends, is thinking your idea is the only and best idea.

It's getting trapped in your own little echo chamber.

An easy trap for small business owners, non-profit leaders, or church leaders, because your work is often born from a passion, a calling, or a personal interest. The problem is that passion can sometimes blind you to the need for a professional, disciplined approach to your finances. Hobbies are great and a wonderful way to spend money, but in an organization, there is a need to manage the finances strategically. There is a needed mindset shift. 

The danger of treating an organization as a hobby is that you make decisions based on emotion and short-term desires rather than long-term sustainability.

Cash flow is always a big question. For many of us, it can feel like a constant struggle – a puzzle we can't quite solve. It's the difference between having a good month on paper and having money in the bank to pay the bills. Today, we're not going to cover anything overly complicated or technical. I have heard it said that when dealing with complexity, it is best to use simple rules to guide complex behavior. You see, complexity creates a paralysis, where we just aren’t sure what to do or where to start.

Today, we're diving into perhaps the most fundamental aspect of bridging that gap: leadership modeling. The core truth we'll explore is this: People do what people see. This is especially true for those in leadership. Whether you're leading a small team, an entire non-profit, or a congregation, your actions speak louder than any mission statement or values poster. Your team is watching, and they're taking their cues from you.

In the episode, we're going to break down one of the most powerful and widely recognized frameworks in leadership development: John C. Maxwell's Five Levels of Leadership. This model is brilliant because it clearly outlines the journey of a leader, from someone people have to follow to someone they want to follow. We'll help you identify where you currently stand and, more importantly, give you actionable steps to start climbing that ladder. We'll also touch on a few other complementary frameworks to broaden our understanding.

John Maxwell says, "“Leadership is influence. That’s it—nothing more and nothing less.” If leadership is influence, what does that mean for organizational health?

In this episode we will be talking about the four areas of a leader's Influence: Guide, Attitude and Outlook, Trust, and Growth
