The character leader (Part 2)
Dr. Roberto Miranda
(Audio: Spanish)
SUMMARY: The fifth virtue of effective leadership is knowing oneself. It is essential to take time to reflect and examine one's life in order to grow as a human being and as a leader. The effective leader knows how to balance work with intentional rest and solitude, and takes time to recharge their batteries and sharpen the saw. It takes courage to prioritize intentional rest, but it is important for personal growth and effective leadership. The ability to know oneself is related to the ethic of intentional rest and reflection.
Knowing yourself is crucial for effective leadership in ministry. This requires reflection on your life, environment, and spiritual journey. It also involves being honest about your past and how it has affected you, including any family system dynamics. Understanding these aspects of yourself can help you compensate for your weaknesses and tendencies, and make better decisions in leadership, including choosing a team that complements your strengths. It's important to know your gifts and spend more time in those areas, while also being aware of your limitations. Surrounding yourself with people who are strong in areas where you are weak can help you achieve balance and be a more effective leader.
Knowing oneself and one's strengths is crucial in leadership. Leaders should focus on using their strengths to benefit the company or ministry, and delegate tasks that are not their strong suit to others. It's important to take time to develop and cultivate one's gift, even if it means sacrificing time that could be spent doing other tasks. Self-reflection and asking for help from other leaders can also be beneficial in identifying weaknesses and areas for improvement. Transparency and courage are necessary in admitting faults and seeking healing. Asking someone for their honest opinion on areas for improvement can also be helpful.
The ability to observe one's environment is an important virtue for leadership. This includes examining and knowing the environment in which one moves, getting in tune with the environment, and adapting leadership to that environment. For example, understanding cultural temperaments and adapting behavior accordingly can make a leader more effective. Observing the environment also allows a leader to obtain valuable information and adjust their leadership accordingly. Confessing offenses and praying for one another is also important for healing and mutual support. Finally, honesty, sobriety, humility, transparency, and self-knowledge are all important virtues for effective leadership.
The importance of observing and analyzing one's environment and oneself in order to adjust and act appropriately is discussed. The speaker emphasizes the need to observe and understand the human dynamics of a situation, including the educational level and temperament of those involved. The importance of waiting and gaining intelligence before speaking is also emphasized, as well as the need to read signals from others and adjust accordingly. Finally, the speaker stresses the importance of knowing oneself and one's environment in order to be a successful leader. A question is raised about whether observing reactions could be limiting or pressure-inducing, but the speaker encourages the practice as a valuable tool for effective communication and leadership.
In this teaching, Pastor Roberto Miranda emphasizes the importance of having various qualities such as transparency, humility, self-knowledge, and sobriety while intervening in someone's life. These qualities are like tools that one has in a tool bag, and if used properly, they can make a person an effective leader. Miranda also stressed the importance of knowing the person's environment before intervening and being careful with one's words. The prayer at the end asks for God's direction, wisdom, and conviction of the Holy Spirit so that one can analyze themselves and take appropriate actions to have an effective and efficient service in the midst of God's kingdom.

I promised sister Cecilia that I was going to be the first to make an observation and I know that she wanted to do it in the end but we couldn't, so sister let us know what you had.
Cecilia: Honesty
Cecilia: That many times we base ourselves on the fact that I am honest and then what you also said, we seize people with truths according to us, because I am so honest, even at that moment is when we should ask the Lord for wisdom the most, how respond to people, not based on me being very honest and letting him go. No, we must ask God for mercy because he had it for us, for others.
