To be a great leader, you must be a great listener. Here's why...
+ You are probably not the smartest person in the church/organization you lead. You are just the leader.
+ What and who you listen to will determine what you do.
+ The decisions you make as a leader are judged by the people in the church/organization you lead. Your private decisions will be judged publicly.
"Let the wise listen and add to their learning, and let the discerning get guidance." (Proverbs 1:5)
