In this episode, we dive into the concept of multi-directional leadership with Trevin Wax, author of The Multi-Directional Leader. Trevin unpacks the dangers of being a one-dimensional shepherd, focusing only on certain threats while ignoring others that could harm the flock. We discuss how pastors can cultivate awareness of diverse challenges and the importance of surrounding themselves with complementary leaders. Tune in to explore practical wisdom for leading faithfully amidst a complex and ever-changing landscape.
