Craig Groeschel Leadership Podcast: Motivating Your Team
When we think about motivation, it’s easy to start with the wrong assumption about people. People are not unmotivated. Everyone is motivated by something—they’re just not all motivated by the same things. In fact, let’s look at a good leader’s definition of motivation: The art of leading someone to...

Hoping for a Win vs. Creating a Win
There’s a big difference between hoping for a win and creating a win. I want the team to feel positive, like we’re getting somewhere and doing something. To do that, our goals need to be specific, measurable, and defined. We have to know what we’re going to accomplish and when we’re going to do i...

The Beginning of Multi-site
Innovation happens where passion meets constraints. At first, it's a strange concept, but we've found that when you're backed up against a wall, you come up with some of your most ingenious solutions. For us, being constrained by a budget and a growing congregation forced us to think about alternati...

An Outsider's Words Often Mean More
I see it as one of my biggest roles to encourage and strengthen our staff. Almost every time we gather, I remind them they are part of something special. But no matter how often I say it, it doesn’t mean as much as when an outsider tells them. We’ve been blessed to have Dr. Sam Chand, Chris...

Be Unreasonable
I bet you have heard this many times: “be reasonable.” Truthfully, under many circumstances, “be reasonable” is sound advice—but not always. As Christian leaders, there are some times to be unreasonable. • When you pray, you might ask God to do something most would consider impossible or unrea...

Leading Into the Future
When I want to lead into the future, I usually look into the past to see what I can learn from any patterns. Sensing it was time to make some changes in our church culture, I prayerfully reflected over the different seasons of our church.I noticed a distinct pattern that repeated itself at least se...

Craig Groeschel Leadership Podcast: Giving and Receiving Feedback, Part 1
Without a doubt, one of the most important tools to develop in your organization is a consistent culture of feedback.
