Every person you know has a story occurring at the center of their identity and their progress that is too often expressed as an unanswered question: How do I connect my driving purpose to what I am doing every day? We ask it in different ways, but at the core of who we are as human beings is the question that connects the invisible pieces of our hearts with the visible pieces of our actions.
True leadership requires the courage to let go of what’s good in order to receive what’s better. Whether it’s possessions, positions, or plans, holding loosely allows us to lead with open hands, ready for transformation, collaboration, and God’s greater purpose.
You did it! You started a business with nothing more than a dream and a willingness to roll up your sleeves. You worked hard, really hard, and the business grew. You didn’t know what you were doing half the time, but you figured it out. You made it up as you went, and now you’re leading your very own multi-million dollar business.
The fastest way to lose sight of your business is to stop listening to your customers. What you think is happening inside your company and what your customers are actually experiencing might be two completely different stories. Too often, leaders rely on assumptions instead of real feedback—and that gap can cost you growth, loyalty, and trust.
In this post, Convene Chair Mike Edwards shares how to check in with your customers in meaningful, non-intrusive ways—and how to turn their insights into quick, high-impact improvements.
Are business growth and your faith opposed? Christian leaders often find themselves at a crossroads, seeking to balance ambition with their faith-based values. The desire to scale operations and achieve greater impact can sometimes feel at odds with the principles of service, integrity, and stewardship that underpin their beliefs.
Yet, scaling a business and adhering to Christian values are not mutually exclusive. In fact, by integrating biblical wisdom with sound business practices, Christian leaders can unlock a path to sustainable growth that aligns with their faith and honors God's purpose for their endeavors.
CEO peer groups are groups of business leaders who meet regularly to discuss their experiences, share insights, and learn from each other. These peer groups can be immensely beneficial for CEOs in a variety of ways. If you are a Christian leader seeking community, conversation, accountability, mentorship, and support, joining a CEO peer group can make a huge difference in your effectiveness.
As the business world constantly evolves, CEOs and business leaders need to stay relevant and adapt to the changing business landscape. By seeking out leadership development opportunities, you can learn about the latest trends and best practices in their industry, which can help your business stay ahead of the curve.
“We are commanded to take the Gospel to all nations, but we cannot forget we have also been commanded to share it with all generations. God is moving all over the world, but don't miss what He is doing with the younger generations in the US. Revival is stirring.” Sean Dunn, Founder / President, Groundwire.net, Jesuscares.com
Something is happening in our nation. There is a growing hunger for an authentic touch from God. So how do we as believers, as employers, and as business owners lean into the opportunities to share the good news of Jesus and His hope, purpose, forgiveness, and salvation? How can we influence those in our families (kids and grandkids), our businesses, and our communities to see Jesus as He truly is?
Sean Dunn, Founder of Groundwork.net and Jesuscares.com, shares with us how we can participate in the movement TOWARD Jesus - putting us right in the middle of what God is doing.
