DO NOT END UP ALONE
FOR NOT KNOWING HOW TO LISTEN
This king ended up alone because he didn’t know how to listen.
A wise leader knows how to listen to others.
A wise leader knows that their function is to serve others, which is why he cares about the needs of others.
The wise leaders must be empathetic and understanding with the people before directing.
A wise leader knows how to discern what people say on behalf of God and what isn’t on his behalf.
A wise leader makes decisions.
In this case the leader was not wise, but it leaves me with an example of what I shouldn’t do, and it’s a lesson that I can become a better leader.
Think about it:
Do you speak more than you listen?
Are you empathetic with others?
In what issues have you gotten yourself into for speaking before listening?
