Day 31 - Step Into Your Leadership Brilliance: Unleash Your True Power

This is the swan song of our Proverbs 31 Leadership journey! Over the last month we’ve discussed several concepts to address internal healing from past wounds to tactical strategies to unleash your authentic leadership potential and maximize your influence as a Proverbs 31 Leader.? We've dissected tactical strategies related to actions that are critical to enhance your capacity to lead in excellence.

But it all comes down to this... Are you true leadership material? Anybody who has a desire to master a body of knowledge can excel as a manager. Management only mandates a focus on understanding the technical and tactical aspects of a program, project or area. Such an individual is even capable of directing others to complete the tasks necessary to achieve goals related to the program, project or area; and except the title of leader.? However, authentic leadership is about so much more.?

Lead From Authenticity

Leading from a place of authenticity is about being able to make a human connection, tap into intrinsic drivers, and bring out the best in someone when they did it did not even know it was there. This is where authentic leadership shines.? Authentic leaders understand that they can't lead others into a posture of victory, if they are not yet victorious themselves.? They know they cannot be effective in their leadership role if they have not released all the minutiae and pain of the past to ensure that they can position for purpose and impact.

Authentic leaders meet people where they are to help them tap into their own level of greatness at work, community, or church.? They realize that the cornerstone of their journey is not to make money or exert power in their roles, but to help others be the most empowered entity that God created them to be.? True leadership is not a title; it ?means being a leader who can engage team members to bring their best to the table no matter the circumstances. Such is the essence of authentic leadership, as defined through the Proverbs 31 Journey.

Unleash Your Proverbs 31 Leader

When we can understand that we're not here for ourselves, and that we are meant to be a blessing to others, we can unleash our authentic leadership potential.? If you are ready to be the leader God created you to be, the first step is to be real with yourself about where you are. One of the greatest attributes of authentic leaders is they never stop learning, they never stop growing, and they are always open to change where needed.? They know the journey is so much bigger than what they desire.? Unfortunately, most individuals in leadership positions never realize the self-assessment journey is needed.?

In Proverbs 31, we see the picture of a leader who realized that every day mattered, and every interaction had purpose. The goal was always to make a difference with every interactions and leave a positive impression with family, community, and in business dealings. Do your interactions with others leave people feeling better, bitter, or wishing they’d never had the encounter?? If you want your leadership legacy to be one of impact, influence, and greatness; it's time to take action to align your desires with tactical strategies to make it happen.

Along this journey, I’ve included several exercises and much information to get the ball rolling to self-assess. That would be a good place to start on your strategy to be the empowered authentic leader that God created you to be. ?I’d also recommend a mentor with the same foundation of faith whom you admire and who can help you unleash the greatness of your potential.
