I have tried to pattern my ministry after that statement. I've spent the last five minutes looking for it. But it went kind of this way, that you were providing the resources the greatest church staff in the world needed to do their ministries. I love that side of management. If you've picked the right people, your (our) role is to give them the resources they need and get out of the way! Thank you for that example of management. Blessings, Dave Tim,

I find it very difficult to manage what others do, especially peers and supervisors. We can hope to influence their actions, but cannot control them. The first responsibility is dead on and it correlates with step 1 in emotional intelligence. I have always worked under the philosophy that we lead people and manage things.

At first I thought it was about directing my subordinates' tasks. But I grew to see that it was really about maximizing their strengths, coaching their weaknesses, harnessing their ideas, and removing the roadblocks to their success. I can see how managing myself, my superiors, and my peers only helps me to do those other things. I've managed people for 13 years. At first I thought it was about directing my subordinates' tasks.
