Leadership Promises - Invest To Empower

Barnabas took [Paul] and brought him to the apostles, And he declared to them how he had seen the Lord on the road, and that He had spoken to him, and how he had preached boldly at Damascus in the name of Jesus."Acts 9:27

Leadership Promises - Invest To Empower.

Barnabas let no opportunity escape to add value to others, and his greatest single contribution in terms of empowerment can be seen in his interaction with Paul.

• He believed in Paul before anyone else did.
• He endorsed Paul's leadership to other leaders.
• He empowered Paul to reach his potential.

To be an empowering leader, you must do more than believe in emerging leaders. You need to take steps to help them become the leaders they have the potential to be. You must invest in them if you want to empower them to become their best.

Empowering people takes a personal investment. It requires energy and time. But it's worth the price.

If you do it right, you will have the privilege of seeing someone move up to a higher level. And when you empower others, you create power in your organization.
