Summary

Great leadership is about knowing who you are and who you are not.
In part one of this podcast series, I shared the first 5 marks of a highly-differentiated leader.
On today's podcast, I continue by sharing 5 more attributes that deserve careful consideration.

Why? Because the cost of lowly-differentiated leadership is enormous:

We diminish the long-term impact of our ministries.
We allow the wrong people exercise power and leadership.
We perpetuate immaturity.
We grow resentful and live in dis-ease.
We waste the time, energy, and money of God’s people.
We increase anxiety in everyone around us.
We, and our community, become less playful (and more “intense/heavy.”)

The good news is that godly, highly-differentiated leadership is the pathway to freedom, a lighter yoke, less worry, better relationships, clearer goals, and more joy!

0:00.0	Hi, my name is Pete Cazaro.
0:06.5	Really glad to have you with me today on the Emotionally Healthy Leader podcast.
0:10.5	And our theme today is a very large one and one I'm very excited about because it really does bring together the best of, I think, our contribution to leadership formation and discipleship,
0:23.7	which is the intersection of integrating emotional health and all of that involves,
0:28.1	and the integration of a slow down contemplative spirituality. And it's the two together
0:33.8	that unleashes great power for transformation in our leadership and our following of
0:39.1	Jesus. So today is a part two of the five marks of a godly, highly differentiated leader.
0:46.3	Such a large topic I've really enjoyed preparing for this and working on each of the five
0:52.5	marks. So it's a lot. And it caused me to do a lot of
0:55.6	reflection on my journey of leadership. And so last week, we, or last podcast, we talked about
1:02.6	in part one, a couple of highly differentiated leaders like John the Baptist, who was very
1:08.5	clear about who he wasn't, who he wasn't, he was able to remain connected
1:12.4	to people, yet not allow his reaction or behavior to be determined by them, which is a great
1:17.8	working definition of differentiation. And same goes for Jesus. Jesus remained connected to people,
1:23.9	yet did not allow his reactions or behaviors to be determined by them. And the reasons
1:29.8	is so important because all of us, we're part of living systems, we're in a sense, we're wire
1:35.9	together, we're emotionally connected with other human beings in systems, whether that system
1:40.9	may be a family or a workplace or a ministry or a church, much like the human body,
1:47.7	which Paul talks about in 1 Corinthians 12. And so differentiation is the ability to stay connected to the system that you're a part of or the different systems.
1:56.9	We're all part of different systems, families, churches, or ministries, even neighborhoods.
2:03.3	But everyone's a leader.
2:05.0	Everyone has influence.
