We came across an article the other day written by Dr. William Lindsay, PhD and Vice President for Academic Affairs at Bethune-Cookman College. The title of the paper was “Exercising Leadership in Academic Life,” but it has a wonderful application in the Church as well. Here are the bullet points:

• Leaders display integrity.
  
• Leaders value collegiality.
  
• Leaders are marked by a strong commitment to mission.
  
• Leaders display transparency and accountability.
  
• Leaders are marked by intelligence and critical thinking
  

He went on to say that Leaders do not “keep up mess.” As I reflect on your leadership in our Atlantic Central District, I want you to know how grateful I am that you are tirelessly building the Kingdom and teaching others to do the same.
