I've been thinking about leaders these days. There are two types. One is the cattle driver. Cattle are driven not lead. They do not follow well but scatter when on their own.
The second is a shepherd. Sheep are lead not driven. Sheep will scatter when driven but follow the trustworthy shepherd. In scripture, humans are compared to sheep not cattle.
Consider some of the leaders I have worked with both in secular and sacred work, it is a lesson few realize. The best results come from a leader who leads by example, not one who barks orders.
