Dear Friends & C12 Members,        

 

Leaders impact our daily lives and futures. In good times and bad, there is always a need for strong leadership.
The success of a business
is determined by the leaders it chooses. But how is leadership defined? The Bible teaches us that leadership is a call from God. Those called are prepared by God for leadership, recognized as leaders by others, and proved as leaders by their actions and character.

 
As a leader in your community and company, how do acquire the constant leadership skills needed to achieve God's best or successfully operate your business? 

C12 Group Austin/San Antonio has proven to be an invaluable
resource to Christian business owners and CEOs. No other forum brings together like-minded business leaders to engage in continual learning and intentional accountability quite like the C12 process.
 

In the spirit of leadership, we invite you to join us on August 11-12, at the Global Leadership Summit-- the largest Christian Leadership event in the world. Click here for details & registration.  As a sponsor of this event, C12 members will receive a deep discount. Just use code GLS2011C12 when registering.

 

Every month we host the C12 Business Excellence Labs, which focus on one critical area of leadership, drilling down into essential leadership aspects, giving you next steps and action plans to take away.

DEVOTION  
Gaining Freedom & a Testimony (Hebrews 6:1)  

The writer of Hebrews exhorts us to attain Christian maturity by gaining true freedom  in Christ, not just continually repenting over habitual sins.  Each time we stiff-arm Satan, we build strength in Christ and a worthy testimony that helps others see that such hope and freedom is possible!

 
Working 'on' my BUSINESS

Translating Strategy into Action
 
Nine of 10 CEOs fail to execute a strategy once it's developed!  This segment wraps-up our four-month series on the process of casting a worthy vision that's actually implemented. Having a strategy based on shared core principles is just the price of admission.  The real pay-off results from company-wide alignment, relevant action plans, and Key Performance Indicators that get all oars pulling in unison to implement the strategy.
 

Working 'on' my MINISTRY in God's Business

What... Me Worry?
 
Anxiety isn't a condition Co-Heirs with Christ should suffer!  We examine the root causes of worry and test our underlying desires and presumed sources of contentment.  'Treadmill  habits' can steal our impact as servant leaders by distracting us from the eternal perspective.  This segment brings refreshment rooted in God's Truth for battle-weary CEOs.

Leading By Encouragement 

 

Numerous studies have surveyed a wide range of U.S leaders and workers to determine common threads among those who performed at high levels over extended periods of time. One leadership behavior characteristic, however, stands out as having surprising influence on those we lead: encouragement. How well we encourage others has great significance and relevance to our leading a company for Christ. Read more...
