The Resilient Leaders Podcast with J.R. Briggs

It’s been said, “leaders are readers.” So, what are you reading? And more importantly how do you decide what to read? On this episode, J.R. unpacks the filter by which he decides what to read and encourages you to develop your own framework or decision tree to answering those questions._____If you haven’t signed up for my every other week FREE newsletter here’s the link: www.kairospartnerships.org/newsletterConnect with J.R.Kairos Partnerships: www.kairospartnerships.orgContact: www.kairospartnerships.org/contact**Resilient Leaders is produced by Joel Limbauan at On a Limb Productions.

As Winston Churchill said, “Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts.” What is needed now – maybe more than at any time in the past several years – is courageous leadership. But how do we cultivate courage in our lives, even just a little bit? That’s what we explore on this episode of the podcast._____If you haven’t signed up for my every other week FREE newsletter here’s the link: www.kairospartnerships.org/newsletterConnect with J.R.Kairos Partnerships: www.kairospartnerships.orgContact: www.kairospartnerships.org/contact**Resilient Leaders is produced by Joel Limbauan at On a Limb Productions: www.onalimbproductions.com

On today’s episode, we look at the rhythm of the best leaders: action-reflection-action. Then we take time to explore a handful of helpful questions to assist you in your reflection. The list of questions are listed below:1. What’s giving me joy in the season?2. What’s draining me, and why?3. As I look back on my leadership over the past handful of months, what am I most proud of? What have I learned?4. As I look back on my leadership, what mistakes have I made, and what have I learned from them?5. If we own the numbers we can hold ourselves accountable. What numbers are you measuring right now?6. Who do I want to work with moving forward? Who are the people I could bring on my team, people I could partner with, or organizations that we could join forces with, formally or informally, in the days ahead?7. What am I afraid of? Where am I letting my fears keep me from experimenting, or acting in a way that is consistent with what I value the most?8. What do I need to care about more in the season? What do I need to care about less?9. What do my prayers look like in the season? And what keeps me from a consistent, vibrant prayer life?10. What does it look like for me to be a well-rested leader going into the fall?11. It’s been said, “We can’t control the volatile tides of change, but we can learn to build better boats.” If you were to build a better boat, how would you do it and what would it look like?12. Who is invested in you? Who has encouraged you, and made you who you are today? How can you thank them this week?13. If you were to grow in leadership by just five or 10% this fall, what would that look like? And who will be the person or people who can help you do that?. . .If you haven’t signed up for my FREE weekly newsletter called 5 Things in 5 Minutes here’s the link: www.kairospartnerships.org/newsletter The whole thing takes you just 5 minutes to read – that’s it.. . .**Resilient Leaders is produced by Joel Limbauan at On a Limb Productions.
