Importance of Healthy Leaders for Healthy Churches
Healthy churches require healthy leaders. The leader's own health directly impacts the health of the church or organization. A healthy leader, according to Todd Hall, is someone who has experienced secure attachments and relationships. Insecure attachments in childhood often lead to unhealth in leadership. However, there is hope for leaders with a rough childhood. To be a healthy leader, one must go through a process of healing and growth, which involves secure relationships, vulnerability, and reflection on past experiences.
