00:00Leadership is influence, and influence can be for good or for bad. We've all been in that situation.
00:23school playground and sits down with a group of young people and within five minutes we already know
00:28Who is that leader? Just look at how they interact with each other. If they've been in a meeting
00:35In our work, we have probably discovered that many times the leader is not the one who coordinates
00:39the board. The leader is the person everyone keeps an eye on in order to figure out what
00:45who thinks. It's important that you learn this principle. Every time we influence another
00:52We are assuming leadership roles, but our influence is limited due to our advanced age.
00:58Moreover, leadership is not a matter of age. Paul understood that, and that is why he wrote to him.
01:04Timothy, do not let anyone look down on you because you are young. On the contrary, let the believers see
01:11You are a role model. We can have influence at any age, and the truth is that
01:17You are your role model, whether you like it or not. We are all leaders in some way. Therefore,
01:24The question isn't whether you're a leader or not. The question is, are you a good leader? We can
01:31To say that the Bible defines a leader as someone who has God-given abilities and responsibility
01:37to influence a group of believers in order to achieve the purposes of
01:43God's grace for that group. But as a reflection, what principles can I apply to my leadership?
01:52How am I influencing my community or group? How does each of them see me?
01:59Today's world is grappling with major crises and problems that desperately need intervention.
02:07The decisiveness of an effective leader. Many people get up and try to face such challenges.
02:14assuming responsibility and accepting the consequences, but sadly they fail in the attempt.
02:20Common flaws that are currently noticeable are because the purposes are selfish, because
02:26The leader is not prepared, either because the reality of the challenge exceeds expectations or because the
02:32The conditions that positioned him as a leader were external. Leadership isn't built on good qualities alone.
02:39These attempts are made through decisive and forceful actions, with people eager to learn and with the
02:47The ability to influence others. This is the test of leadership. Is anyone following him? If so
02:56If you want to know if you're a leader or not, just look behind you. Does anyone follow you? Jesus said,
03:02My sheep hear my voice, I know them, and they follow me. Paul says, imitate me as I imitate him.
03:12Christ. It is true that Christians follow Christ, but we need inspired human role models.
03:20Good heavens. Most of us mistakenly associate titles with leadership. There's a difference.
03:29There's a difference between being a boss and being a leader. Many people have authority, but they lack leadership. True leadership is key.
03:37A leader isn't always the elected official or the one who gets promoted. True leaders are those who
03:43They set the pace, they are the influencers, the creative problem solvers. In conclusion, it cannot be
03:53Don't force anyone to follow you. Whatever you do, you have to inspire people to follow you.
04:00Fifth, the foundation of leadership is character, not charisma. Many leaders rise to power with the
04:07They have charisma, but they don't last because they lack character. In fact, many of them have had great
04:14character flaws. Their personal charm sustained them for a while, but in the end it has
04:20demonstrated his lack of character. The foundation of leadership is not personal charisma, but
04:29Character. Charisma has nothing to do with what makes a leader effective. Leadership is not
04:38It has to do with a charming and striking personality, a great smile, or a velvety voice.
04:45What it does need is character and credibility. Leadership needs influence, but without it, it needs character and credibility.
04:55Character gets you nowhere. Reputation is what people say you are. Character is what you do.
05:03You really are. There isn't one specific personality type for leaders. Perhaps you've heard
05:11To say in the past that leaders are people of choleric temperament or that they are people who
05:17They take charge of the situations. But there are leaders anyway, of all shapes, sizes, and all kinds.
05:24temperaments. God wants to use your personality just as He created it. In the Bible we find
05:33Leaders of the four temperaments. Paul was choleric, Peter sanguine, Moses was melancholic, and
05:43Abraham was phlegmatic. So, leadership isn't a matter of personality. You don't need to be
05:50Extroverted, sanguine, choleric—not ideal for leadership. What leadership truly requires is character. It's the
05:58The one thing all great leaders have in common is that when a person reaches a position of power...
06:04Leadership lacking character is its downfall. In conclusion, we cannot imitate the
06:13another's personality. God created us with a unique form. When we try to imitate someone, we
06:21We consume. Just as people are different, so are leaders. But credibility is key.
06:28and character. Six, one can learn to be a leader based on this principle. We all have the potential to
06:38to become great leaders. The Bible says, put into practice what you have learned from me,
06:45received and heard. What they have seen of me. In other words, Paul in the Philippians is
06:53They say, leaders aren't made, they're created. Let's learn to be leaders. There are no born leaders.
07:03People become leaders because of the way they respond to circumstances.
07:09Leaders rise or fall based on the decisions they make. The mystery of Jesus
07:16This reflects the high priority he placed on leadership training. He appointed twelve individuals whom he named
07:23He chose apostles to accompany him and to send them out to preach. Jesus had a public ministry.
07:31which included preaching, teaching, and healing. He also had a private one dedicated to
07:39training the disciples and within them an inner circle. Are you investing
07:46Is there time to learn to be a leader? In fact, by studying this course you are preparing yourself. But
07:53What will happen when it ends? When a leader stops learning, they also stop being a leader.
08:00To be effective, we need to develop, grow, and continually become what God intended us to be.
08:06He wants us to be. Learning to be a leader takes a lifetime. Let's say there are two paths or
08:14Ways to develop a leader. Let's look at this one. Number one, character. Character is where the
08:21The following competencies: Adaptability, relationship building, ethics and values, self-control, decision-making
08:34Initiative, reliability, and the ability to listen. Abilities and the ability to achieve results.
08:43sustainable. In these we can say, action-oriented. That it has the vision, that it has the
08:51creativity, decision-making, organizational skills, planning, and of course
08:59presentation skills, project management skills, problem-solving skills, and
09:05Written communication skills. There are quite a few. But before embarking on the adventure of leading a
09:12As a group of people, we need to start developing these skills to lead ourselves.
09:20Let's continue on a path of continuous learning. Let's practice these skills we've learned every day.
09:27mentioned. By then, we will have integrated the ability to lead into our lifestyle.
09:33What do you think? Are you up for going through this process?
