lesson on leadership by Carver T. Yu (Fuller ThM '76)

The leader of any institution must have vision: knowing where you are going, and identifying the most important thing you want to accomplish. But having vision is not enough; you also need passion to really dedicate your life to making the vision real. Without dedication and passion, you simply cannot inspire others to join you.

Partnership with others is very important in leadership. A leader has to have an openness to listen to others, and must take them seriously. A leader has to share ownership of his or her vision and be able to entrust others with the things they can do best.

Lastly, a leader must be willing to confront challenges and respond to them with honesty and integrity.
