Unseen Leadership Episode 36: Steve Green on Seeing Business as Ministry

In this episode of the Unseen Leadership podcast, Chandler Vannoy is joined by Steve Green who is the President of Hobby Lobby, founder of the Museum of the Bible in Washington, DC, and author of many books including his latest This Beautiful Book which just recently released. During their conversation, they discuss how to build a strong organization, how to lead relationally, and how to see your business as a ministry. QUOTES FROM EPISODE 36: “You lose teaching opportunities when you just do the job yourself.” “No one learns more than the teacher.” “My job is making sure I have good people and that I’m building a strong organization.” “As a leader, you don’t always have to be the expert in the room.” “My nature is more of the doer and I can miss out on relational moments.” “It really became clear to me that not only was I doing ministry at church but the business was a direct ministry.” RESOURCES MENTIONED Museum of the Bible This Beautiful Book by Steve Green Good to Great by Jim Collins Saving My Assassin by Virginia Prodan For more than 25 years, Portable Church® has helped thousands of churches launch strong and thrive in a mobile setting.
