TRAITS OF A GOOD ELDER BOARD Leadership, according to John Maxwell, is all about influence. Identifying elders, observing their actions, and assessing their impact in the right direction is crucial. Biblical qualifications serve as the foundation for candidacy. Timing plays a pivotal role as churches go through life cycles with different needs. Elder rotation is key as not all elders fit every stage. Skill sets and a balance between strategic and compassionate individuals are necessary. Crafting the right mix of executive and heart-centered elders is vital. #leadershipcoach #leadershipmatters #elder

Every business publication, from the Harvard Business Review on down, defines the CEO as being accountable for the performance and results of their company by ensuring the business operates efficiently and meets its goals. The necessary traits of a good CEO include vision, critical thinking skills, decisiveness, experience, trustworthiness, passion, and inspiration. Those CEOs who excel in the role define, build, and protect their organization's culture. A formal definition of 'organizational culture' is the underlying beliefs, assumptions, values, and ways of interacting that contribute to an organization's unique social and psychological environment. Culture is always top-down, never bottom-up. Culture will encourage personal and professional growth, or it will kill it. Culture is an organization's 'secret sauce' or a poison pill. It's the CEO who, ultimately, defines and cultivates the company's culture. The bottom line is that a winning culture allows an organization to attract and retain the best and brightest people. Period. Ohio Living's culture is alive and thriving and demonstrated daily through our team members' compassion, community, and faith in our mission and one another. That is what best defines our CEO, Larry Gumina, and the legacy he is building at Ohio Living!

Closing a chapter on a leadership journey is never easy. It’s tough to step back after pouring so much passion, energy, and heart into something and to let others take the baton. Leadership isn’t just about the time spent or the goals achieved; it’s about the relationships built, the challenges faced, and the growth experienced along the way. While it’s hard to say goodbye to Engage Dallas, I’m grateful for every lesson learned and every person who has been part of this journey. Though this chapter is ending, the impact will continue to shape my path forward. Here’s to new beginnings and carrying the experiences with me into the next adventure. #Leadership #Community #EngageDallas #DallasTx #Leadership #Growth #NewBeginnings
