Unplugged is Unplugged

Bookmark and Share

Thoroughly enjoyed the final day of Unplugged. Jud brought the heat! Thought I'd share a few notes from the session. Also, Charles Hill did a little live blogging.

Structure for growth more than control
Structure for effectiveness more than excellence

"You can push the excellence bar too high. Perfection paralyzes."

"Recognize the blessing of financial constraints." Constraints are a blessing disguise. It's the "Houdini Principle." The greatest acts are often performed under the greatest constraints.

"There are no financial lids. Only leadership lids."

"The summit is a state of mind."

Always identify the next step that you want people to take! Central Christian actually has a next step booth.

"There is no there there."

I loved this last observation. You never arrive. It's the journey not the destination!

You forgot... encourage leaders to ask for forgiveness instead of permission.
