Now, imagine that you missed all your deadlines and delivered your sermon to all these people late. In this scenario, the other people supporting your sermon cannot effectively support you or the content.
Just because you delivered a successful sermon doesn’t mean the sermon was a success. You must consider the unseen side of success.
The Best Leaders Evaluate More Than Outcomes
The best leaders refuse to evaluate only outcomes. And if you’re a leader responsible for outcomes, remember, a lack of planning or processes on your part shouldn’t create emergencies for everyone else.
