Discernment 9/9/2009 11:15:42 PM
Steering the Chariot as it moves full speed ahead. Yesterday was an interesting day. As I enter the third week as a leader in this organization, the advice I was given of “steering the chariot” hit home. To steer the chariot you also have to see what’s ahead.
Even with the financial challenges we still have to be strategic. Discernment for me right now is vital. My years working with not for profit boards in crisis are very relevant. This is no longer theory for me. I am working based on knowledge and experience.
Discernment allows me to listen to those with the educational experience and theories, while taking into consideration they have not lived through rebuilding organizations. Though each organization has its uniqueness, I can’t ignore the reality of the human factor. Regardless of how well you plan there is always the unknown. I can sense that the unknown Blessing is near. It is my responsibility as the leader to steer the chariot in the direction of the unknown Blessing even while it is moving quickly.
