This week's guest, Kerry Resch will share with us how to develop leaders and come alongside people to empower them to become all that God designed them to be. Kerry has been a staff worker with Cru for many years, serving in several capacities of leadership, currently as a coaches' coach. She also is a mother of five children. I learned firsthand when she was my supervisor that she not only is a godly woman but also an inspiring and helpful coach who has guided many to have fruitful ministries. 

Kerry shares some principles of how to empower leaders to lead:
1. "People don't care what you know until they know that you care."
2. Find out how they are doing personally.
3. What do they need in order to reach their goals?
4. Listen to them.
5. Show them appreciation.
6. Be a cheerleader for them. 
7. Align those you are leading to the vision and mission while giving them freedom in how to express this. 
8. Know your people and adapt your leadership to each person's personality and what environment in which they best thrive; such as, How much structure or freedom do they need?

What can you do to help yourself to grow as a leader?
1. Take time to self-reflect.
2. Enjoy deep community with the Lord.
3. Have a coach or two in your life - one for your personal growth and one for your work growth.
4. Lead in the context of a team.

Helpful tips to avoid burnout:
1. Become comfortable saying "NO." 
2. Live out of your values.
3. Maintain your margins.
4. Step out when it is time to move on or you cannot meet the expectations of the job.
5. Deal with areas in your life that need healing.
6. Be vulnerable and authentic with others. Don't fight to live up to others' expectations, but rather, follow God's will. 
7. Don't get into a cycle of the tyranny of the urgent. Plan ahead, 
8. Have a couple of people who know you well, cheer you on, and accept you even with your flaws and mistakes. 
9. Have a friendship or coach on the outside to give you perspective.
10. Don't be afraid to fail - we learn and grow through it.
