Summary
To kick-off our new season, we are sharing some of our favorite leadership lessons from Pastor J.D. This will be a minor departure from our question/answer format, but these quick thoughts on different leadership topics are too helpful not to share. You don’t want to miss any week in September.
Oftentimes, Pastor J.D. will ask the staff of The Summit Church to read a book before our monthly large team meeting. In our episode today, J.D. is hitting three quick leadership application points from the book Creativity, Inc by Ed Catmull, the president of Pixar and Disney Animation.
Join Pastor J.D. as he talks about setting and changing culture.
