A couple weeks ago, we as SRYA enjoyed a brilliant speech by our Pastor Dirk Poppe on the topic of “Leadership.” We have been spending the past few weeks studying the book of Nehemiah and the theme of leadership comes back time and time again.
Reverend Poppe told us what the keys to becoming a great leader were; The most important being that you don’t have to be in a position of power to be an effective leader. Take the initiative in your workplace, your family, in university or Bible study club. If you are given tasks to carry out, it is simple: Do them to the best of your ability.
