Leadership – Do You Utilize these Top 3 Powerful Skills?

Discover the Top 3 Powerful Skills of Successful Effective Leaders!

Leadership is required in many different arenas of life.

Key Leadership SkillsA small number of people seem to be born with a built in set of skills for being an effective leader and it comes naturally to them. However, for the majority of people, study and training is required to bring out the true leader in them.

It has been said that “The person who says he is leading but has no followers is only taking a walk.”

That being said, I would also add that good leaders require good followers.

Effective leaders teach their followers how to step up and be all that they can be. As others imitate a leader, and follow their steps, growth and progress should come to the organization as a whole.

Top 3 Powerful Skills for Effective Leadership:

1.) VISION – It is vital that a leader be a person of vision. If you do not have a clear vision of where you are headed and what you plan to accomplish, how can you expect to get yourself and others there?

This type of vision is actually a spiritual vision.

When the Bible talks about vision it is about what will be; not what we see. Spiritual vision equals seeing what will be. Natural vision equals seeing what already is.

We are told that vision comes from God and that it should be written down and made clear to others. That way everyone can grab hold of it and run with it. (Habakkuk 2:1-2) It is vitally important that you stay focused on the vision.

2.) PLANNING & PREPARATION – Another key skill of an effective leader is the ability to plan. Before you start something; plan, make preparation, and look ahead.

What is the long-term impact of what you are about to do? Sit down and count the cost. Fully consider the project you are about to take on to be sure you can complete it.

Planning and preparation helps fulfill the vision. It is never wasted time. Learn to plan ahead, prepare, and be organized.

3.) PRAYER – Great leaders that stand the test of time are leaders that pray. Prayer is not just for your personal life, but also for your employment, business, family, school, etc.

In everything we do it should be by prayer. (Philippians 4:6)

Why would you not want to be built up spiritually before you do anything? In everything you do; be prepared in prayer and get God involved.

Keep in mind: Your vision may be so big that it seems impossible to ever attain it. Remember though, that vision tends to run in advance of your ability to fulfill it.

As a leader you have strength that can be tapped into through the resource of prayer. When God is your partner, nothing is impossible!

Your next step? Take what you have just learned and whether you are a leader of a business organization, or any type of group, ministry, or family begin to grow in these key skills. Start applying these powerful skills in your life and watch yourself become a successful leader.

May your leadership skills improve and your life overflow with growing prosperity!
