Jeff & Terra Mattson | Become the Leader You Would Follow, 212

Listen Later

Jeff & Terra Mattson join Amber to discuss their book, Shrinking the Integrity Gap between What Leaders Preach and Live. They dive into how unresolved trauma impacts a leader, the gap between our values and habits, and some healthy tips for shrinking the gap.

Questions Discussed During Become the Leader You Would Follow:
  1. The two of you have invested more than two decades in leadership coaching and trauma-informed therapy. Share a little of what you've found to be the root issues contributing to many of the leadership crises.
  2. What's some of the impact and dangers you've seen from slapping Bible verses on wounds of the past like Band-aids?
  3. What is trauma-informed therapy?
  4. What is the integrity gap?
  5. What does unresolved trauma look like and how can a leader know if it is impacting his/her integrity?
  6. Jeff, you share a number of ministry stories in "Shrinking the Integrity Gap: Between What Leaders Preach and Live" that would leave many confused, angry, and at worst closing the door on Christianity. Share a little about one of those experiences, how they impacted what you do today, and what the result could have been had you not dealt with the trauma? 
  7. So often, the unresolved conflict and trauma in a leaders life actually causes it to implode. Why do you think we're so reluctant to just share that and seek help or just humbly admit?
  8. If a leader is listening and wants to process their story, but are afraid because it puts their job on the line. What's the step forward for them?
  9. What are some of the gap similarities you see in Christian and non-Christian leaders?
