The Resilient Leaders Podcast with J.R. Briggs

While life is complex, one thing is for sure: our lives are full of decisions of either surrender or stewardship. We either need to let go of people, situations or outcomes (surrender), of we need to be faithful to our callings, responsibilities, and expectations (stewardship). On today’s episode we navigate these two choices and how we can learn to know the difference in order to be leaders who grow in resilience._______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/contactTwitter: @jr_briggs**Resilient Leaders is produced by Joel Limbauan at On a Limb Productions: www.onalimbproductions.com

And yet, ironically, hardly anybody does them. And even more ironic, it’s these two action steps that separate great leaders from good leaders.You can do them. You know how. You just need to care about it enough to do them._______At Kairos Partnerships, we exist to invest in, equip, and befriend hungry leaders who want to get better.

So much of leadership is learning to manage tensions more than it is about solving problems. In a world of either/or, resilient leadership is often both/and in its approach. On this episode we’ll explore how leaders can operate out of a sacred leadership overlap in managing those tensions with wisdom and courage.______If you haven’t signed up for my every other week FREE newsletter here’s the link: www.kairospartnerships.org/newsletterI’d love to hear from you.
