Five Keys to Empowerment
• Delegate responsibility, not work.
• Let members take turns running meetings
• When delegating, don’t ask questions like,
“Do you understand?”
• Keep a “delegation diary”
• Establish “routine checkups.”

A Message
“Build a better world” said God.
And I answered, “How? The world is such a
vast place. And so complicated now, I’m so
small and useless; There’s nothing I can
do.”
But God, in all his wisdom said,
“Just build a better you.”
