Quote: "The lighthouse of the Lord beckons to all as we sail the seas of life." --- Thomas S Monson Points of Leadership is all about equipping leaders in maximizing their leadership for the people they lead. People that live in areas where the weather changes rapidly, have developed some key life skills that keeps them prepared for whatever the weather may bring. From stocking up their homes with essentials to having their weather gears ready in cars, they are a prepared people. Sometimes, this is different in life's uncertainties, where more is needed for stability and orientation. Imagine you are in a small boat at sea when a storm rolls in. It is easy to become disoriented, with no good sense of direction. It is much easier to panic and feel like getting back on track is impossible. Then suddenly out of no where, a light shines from a far distance- a lighthouse- that gives hope and direction. Lighthouses don't get all wobbly when the weather gets rough; they just stand there shining. This is exactly what Dr. Feyi Obamehinti and Mrs. Kristin Jaeck provide in this episode of Points of Leadership podcast. They provide some lighthouse equipping and guidance necessary for great leaders during uncertain times and very useful for certain times as well. As always, the leadership principles we share on Points of Leadership are for any leader in any industry that desires to take care of those they lead well through the overflow of his or her life. So, pull up a chair, call a friend and take a listen and share with any industry leader in your life.
