Published: Sept. 25, 2019, noon

In this episode of the Unseen Leadership podcast, Chandler Vannoy and Josh Hunter are joined by Ron Edmondson who is the CEO of Leadership Network, a former pastor, and author of the book The Mythical Leader. During their conversation, they discuss how to lead where God has placed you, empower those in the pews, and create buy-in from your team. QUOTES FROM EPISODE 18: “Wherever God has allowed you to be, that is where he desires to use you.” “If you have certain skill sets that the church can use, then raise your hand and volunteer.” “As a senior leader, there is a weight that you carry that no one else will understand until they sit where you sit.” “You cannot expect people to own your world as much as you do.” “We don’t always get a seat at the table, but we should always be looking for a seat at the table in a humble way.” “If God calls you into something, he is going to equip you for it.” “One of the biggest myths of leadership is if I am hearing no one complain, everyone must be happy.” “We need to be quicker to admit when we do not know something.” “One of the things leaders struggle most with is self doubt.” RESOURCES MENTIONED The Mythical Leader by Ron Edmondson
