This year in my position at University Lutheran Church of Hope, I have been asked to set some goals. I have often set goals for myself but this is the first time the Personnel Committee and the Lead Pastor asked us staff to write goals and to share them with each other.
I wrote some goals and later looked back at them. I discovered that every goal I wrote involved other people. None of the goals were something that I could do alone or wanted to do alone. They were mostly about helping other people do ministry. That is a new thing for me. In the past when I have set goals, they have usually been things that I was going to do without thinking about who could work with me on it.
I wonder if my leadership style is changing. Umm.......
