9. 1. PROVIDING VISION
•As a leader, it is expected of you to develop
a vision for the organization through
participatory management. It is also better
for you to involve your team mates,
because several heads are better than one.

10. 2. ACHIEVING GOALS
•To make your vision a reality, it is
very essential that you and your co-
workers must set goals or objectives.

11. •It is your task to see to it that the
objectives you have set are achieved.
Your team members will have a good
performance if you know how to
motivate them Through this, you can
expect quality output.

12. 3. INITIATING CAMARADERIE AND SMOOTH
RELATIONSHIP
•Organizations cannot avoid conflicts or
disagreements because of the presence of
individual differences.

13. •It is the task of the leader that this
misunderstanding be immediately
resolved, so that it will not become worse.
Through the effort of the leader in solving
this conflict, we can expect a harmonious
relationship among them.

22. CHRISTIANS LEADER
•According to Mark Fillingham “Christian
leadership springs from discipleship, is rooted in
character, centered in service, corporate in nature
and must be empowered and directed by the Holy
Spirit. The qualities of character of a Christian
leader, as indicated in I Timothy 3:1-15 and
Titus11:59 are:

23. 1. ABOVE REPROACH (I TIMOTHY
3:2)
•Someone whose immaculate life attracts
people to Jesus. Just the sort of person
that was chosen by the early church (Acts
6:3) people who were of good reputation
and therefore trustworthy.

24. 2. HUSBAND OF ONE WIFE
(I TIMOTHY 3:2)
• This emphasis is not so much on whether his
relationship with the opposite sex is above
reproach. Christian leadership 1s costly and
no Christian who aspires to leadership can
afford to heed worldly rather than Biblical
attitudes to sex and sexual relationship.

25. 3. TEMPERATE (I TIMOTHY 3:2) -
• This is less a matter of moderation or lack of self-
indulgence but more of having a clear perspective.
Walking in the Light of God, rather the darkness of
men, gives a wholly different perspective on
matters, which to the world are of vital importance.
The Christian leader should be led and influenced
by those things on which God places high priority.

26. 4. PRUDENT (I TIMOTHY 3:2)
• Prudence is a key characteristic of maturity
and is related to good judgment, which is at a
premium in all kinds of leadership. Prudence
starts with a clear appreciation of one’s own
worth, balanced by a healthy, complete
dependence on God.

27. 5. RESPECTABLE (I TIMOTHY 3:2)
•Literally one whose behavior, life-
style, appearance and attitudes
command respect even from those
who do not share his Christians
commitment.

28. 6. HOSPITABLE (I TIMOTHY 3:2)
•A practical sphere in which the love of the
leader is demonstrated sacrificially. It should be
recognized that this is not limited to married
people; single Christians can demonstrate
practical loving care in hospitality both to other
singles and to couples.

29. 7. ABLE TO TEACH (TIMOTHY 3:2)
• The overflow of ‘teachableness’. There is a strong
link between teaching and leading (Timothy 5:17
& 1 Thessalonians 5:12 where individually
applied and corrective teaching is embraced in
‘admonishing’).Christian leaders must invest
time and energy in learning so that they can
teach; learning is as much a heart activity as a
head activity!

30. 8. NOT ADDICTED TO WINE (I TIMOTHY 3:3)
•This is not a command to total
abstinence but rather that nothing
should have the sort of hold on us that
alcohol has for the drunkard sports,
hobbies, or work, even, can demand and
gradually achieve too high a place in our
time and attention.

31. 9. NOT SELF-WILLED (TITUS 1:7)
•To be self-willed is to be
unsubmissive. Self-will leads to self-
pleasing, vanity and pride.

32. 10. NOT QUICK-TEMPERED (TITUS 1:7)
•“The fruit of the Spirit is... long
~temperedness” - people and situations
that confront the Christian leader will
frequently impose frustration. Only a
Christ-like response will achieve a Christ-
like outcome

33. 11. NOT PUGNACIOUS (TITUS 1:7)
•This refers not only to physical violence but
also to verbal violence(gossip, bitter
criticism, etc.). We are blessed, according to
Jesus, when people maltreat us for His sake,
so we have no need to respond aggressively.
If we are tempted to be pugnacious for any
other reason, is an almost certain sign of sin
in ourselves.

34. 12. UNCONTENTIOUS ( I TIMOTHY 3:3)
•This is vital to corporate leadership. Some
who are successful leaders in professions
where they always have the final say,
revert to being quarrelsome when placed
in a team. No one has a monopoly of God’s
knowledge and wisdom.

35. 13. GENTLE (I TIMOTHY 3:3)
•“Blessed are the gentle for they shall inherit
the earth”, say Jesus. A leader is much more
effective, even in a secular context, when he
treats his subordinates gently rather than
harshly. Gentleness inspires affection,
commitment and a willingness to be led.

36. 14. FREE FROM THE LOVE OF MONEY ((I
TIMOTHY 3:3)
• “Where your treasure is, there will your heart be
also”. When money, possessions, promotion, public
recognition and the like tie us to our life on earth,
we have disqualified ourselves from leadership of
God's people. If anything tempts us to say, “Come
back, Lord Jesus, but not just yet”, we should
beware.

37. 15. ONE WHO MANAGES HIS OWN
HOUSEHOLD WELL (I TIMOTHY 3:4)
•Christian leadership, like charity, begins
at home. If one is -ineffective as a leader
in the context of home and family, how
can one expect to lead God’s people?
