In this episode, I’m sharing six discipleship-shaped practices that turn teams into greenhouses for future leaders: (1) measure potential as well as performance, (2) delegate real authority while keeping accountability, (3) mentor with identity and mission in view, (4) balance HEAD, HEART, HANDS for 2030-readiness, (5) make delegation a muscle using the SWIM model, and (6) cultivate trust and mission clarity so purpose, not perks, keeps people engaged. You’ll walk away with tools you can use this week, including a 70-20-10 growth plan, a five-rung Delegation Ladder, the 4-S mentoring rhythm, and a simple debrief that builds leadership endurance.
Key Takeaways
- Potential > performance alone. Look for learning agility, values alignment, and influence instinct; utilize the 70-20-10 framework (stretch, mentoring, formal learning).
- Authority with accountability. Use the Delegation Ladder (Tell → Sell → Test → Consult → Delegate) and set metrics and checkpoints.
- Mentoring multiplies. Try the 4-S rhythm: Story, Scripture, Skills, Stretch.
- HEAD, HEART, HANDS. Think: critical thinking, empathy-driven collaboration, and disciplined execution.
- Delegation is a muscle. Use SWIM: Situation, Wanted outcome, Instructions, Metrics; then debrief: What worked? What didn’t? What’s next?
- Trust & purpose trump perks. Connect role → team mission → Kingdom impact; celebrate wins and honest lessons publicly.
Reflection Questions
- Which practice is your current blind spot, and why?
- Name three emerging leaders near you. What stretch assignment will you offer one of them this week?
- How can you reframe an upcoming project to showcase its Kingdom impact?
