Most teams work hard, but few are actually winning
|
Hey Reader, Most teams are working hard, but few are actually winning. Not because they lack effort or skill, but because they lack clarity. Your people can’t chase the win if you haven’t painted the scoreboard. When vision isn’t clear, teams burn out trying to please everyone instead of pursuing what truly matters. This week’s message is about leadership clarity, how defining the win gives your team purpose, alignment, and freedom to run. 🎥 Watch the 5-minute message here
What I’m ThinkingYou can’t expect your team to chase the win if you haven’t painted the scoreboard. Most teams don’t fail from lack of effort but from lack of clarity. As leaders, we often assume people know what success looks like, but if we haven’t said it clearly and consistently, we leave them guessing. When your team has to guess what winning means, they burn out. Clarity is leadership kindness.
Habakkuk 2:2 says, “Write the vision, make it plain so he may run who reads it.”
When you make the vision plain, your people can run with purpose, confidence, and unity. Thought 1: Confusion is the Enemy of ExcellenceYour job as a leader is to bring clarity, not just correction. When your team knows what winning looks like, they can take ownership. They can measure progress, celebrate victories, and self-correct when they’re off course. Without clarity, they rely on you for every decision. That’s not leadership. That’s dependency. Even Jesus didn’t just give his disciples tasks. He gave them a mission: “Go and make disciples.” That’s what winning looked like for them. Thought 2: Paint the ScoreboardHere’s a simple framework:
When people know how they help the team win, you create a culture of clarity and accountability. Jesus modeled this in the parable of the talents. The servants knew what was expected and were judged faithful based on how they stewarded what was given to them. Thought 3: Clarity is KindnessYour next leadership breakthrough might not be a new strategy or SOP. It might simply be clarity.
1 Corinthians 14:33 says, “For God is not a God of confusion but of peace.” When you define what winning looks like, you honor God through order and empower your people to run freely. What I’m StudyingHabakkuk 2:2 | Proverbs 29:18 | 1 Corinthians 14:33 Reflection prompt: Does my team know what winning looks like this week?

Hey everyone, If your leadership disappeared tomorrow, would your team still stand strong. If leadership cannot be passed down, it is not biblical leadership. Today’s focus is the overlooked responsibility of building systems and leaders who can carry the weight when you step away. What I Am Thinking Leadership is stewardship. We are pillars that hold up and display the truth, not the truth itself. If everything in the business depends on you, you are not stewarding what God gave you. Build...

Hey Reader, Every leader feels the tension between running faster and running faithfully. We push, plan, and perform, yet sometimes it still feels off. This week, I've been reflecting on Hebrews 12:1–2 and the idea of Faith-Driven Leadership, reminding us that our best leadership happens when we run the race God set before us, not the one culture, family, or ambition demands. What I’m Thinking “Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a huge crowd of witnesses to the life of faith, let us...
