JESUS CHRIST

1. Jesus was not self-promoting.

2. Jesus was obedient to the Holy Spirit.

3. Jesus cast a vision, with clarity, simplicity, and directness.

4. Jesus was a strategic team builder.

5. Jesus was a relationship builder.

6. Jesus expressed control and authority as a leader when needed.

7. Jesus engaged crisis head-on.

8. Jesus practiced daily prayer.

9. Jesus was all about empowering others.

These nine characteristics of Jesus were a definite sign of what he thought was important in
leadership. These same points can enable any leader to achieve strong team development. The
example of Christ is a powerful lesson for anyone desiring to be a healthy leader.

ABRAHAM

Abraham is one of the greatest leaders ever, and one my all-time favorite Bible characters. Here
are seven simple leadership lessons from his adventure:

1. Great leaders are CALLED (Gen 12:1). They don’t just make it up as they go; they hear from
God and obey. They don’t do whatever they want to do; they do what God calls them to do.
They don’t live to please the crowd; they live to please God.
2. Great leaders are WORSHIPPERS (Gen 12:7,8). Just as Abraham was constantly setting up
altars and crying out to God, great leaders don’t even attempt to lead without God’s presence.

3. Great leaders are NOT PERFECT (Gen 12:13, Gen 20:2). Abraham lied about his wife, twice!
But God still used him. And, He will probably still use us, in spite of our mistakes.

4. Great leaders are LOYAL (Gen 14:12-17). Abraham risked his life rescuing Lot from his selfish
decisions. What are friends for?

5. Great leaders are GENEROUS (Gen 14:20). Abraham tithed. Do you tithe? Do the members of
your leadership team tithe?

6. Great leaders are TEMPORARY and they know it. That’s why Abraham was always thinking
about the next generation. (Gen 17:7-9, 18:19)

7. Great leaders are TESTED (Gen 22). God always tests, before he invests

MOSES

Moses Was a Patient Leader of Impatient People

Moses Endured Constant Grumbling

Moses Was Challenged as a Leader by Fatigue and Frustration- He was challenged to be a

consistent leader. However, these challenges introduced feelings of exhaustion. Fatigue and
frustration can cause any leader to become tired and weak.

PONCIUS PILATE

Like many politicians today, Pilate had a lot of worldly stature to lose. The Roman Emperor at the
time, Tiberius, had given Pilate a cushy, 10-year appointment as Prefect, when most terms in
that role were less than three years. Any rocking of the boat—like the grassroots revolt that
might have been provoked if he saved Jesus—would not sit well with his bosses back in Rome.

And like a lot of our leaders, Pilate had to be responsive to the demands of his base. At a festival
that sounds a bit like a modern town hall forum, Pilate went before a throng of people and tried
to reason with them, offering up Barabbas, a real criminal, to be put to death instead of Jesus.
The crowd was having none of it, and, perhaps sensing that it was either him or this odd young
carpenter from Nazareth, Pilate chose to save his own skin. The only people who would have
supported Pilate if he chose otherwise were the poor, radicals, outcasts—people who could do
nothing for him.

HERODUS

King Herod the Great was the villain in the Christmas story, a wicked king who saw the baby
Jesus as a threat and wanted to murder him.

Although he ruled over the Jews in Israel in the time before Christ, Herod the Great was not
completely Jewish. He was born in 73 B.C. to an Idumean man named Antipater and a woman
named Cyprus, who was the daughter of an Arab sheik.

King Herod was a schemer who took advantage of Roman political unrest to claw his way to the
top. During a civil war in the Empire, Herod won the favor of Octavian, who later became the
Roman emperor Augustus Caesar. Once he was king, Herod launched an ambitious building
program, both in Jerusalem and the spectacular port city of Caesarea, named after the emperor.
He restored the magnificent Jerusalem temple, which was later destroyed by the Romans
following a rebellion in A.D. 70

In the Gospel of Matthew, the Wise Men met King Herod on their way to worship Jesus. He tried
to trick them into revealing the child's location in Bethlehem on their way home, but they were
warned in a dream to avoid Herod, so they returned to their countries by another route.

Herod strengthened Israel's position in the ancient world by increasing its commerce and turning
it into a trading hub for Arabia and the East. His massive building program included theaters,
amphitheaters, a port, markets, temples, housing, palaces, walls around Jerusalem, and
aqueducts. He kept order in Israel but by using secret police and tyrannical rule.

FERDINAND MARCOS

Civility and respect toward his officials. To evaluate his grasp of important problems, he would
engage a small group of officials for consultations. He preferred this format over one-on-one
meetings.

Clarity of purpose and results-oriented work. He made a few, not many, state visits to foreign
countries. Thus, he went to the US and Japan on state visits and to neighbouring countries
because of ASEAN.

Knowledge of the law and sensitivity. Normally, President Marcos affixed his approvals of
projects with a simple “approved” followed by his short-signature.

GLORIA MACAPAGAL ARROYO

Gloria Macapagal Arroyo was catapulted into power by the second EDSA People Power
Revolution in 2001. While the popularity and trust ratings had been an area for improvement
for the daughter of another Philippine president, Diosdado Macapagal, PGMA was known to be
a very hands-on leader. The indicator: she was abreast even with small-town road and irrigation
projects. She traveled extensively across the country to either supervise their groundbreaking or
lead the inauguration of such projects.

While her “famous temper” may have also made her notorious, in leadership, this is also an
indicator of being a results-oriented leader. She has been filmed to not mince words when
deadlines and targets are not met.

Preparation is also key in leadership, and Macapagal-Arroyo did prepare to become president.
While many women of her time and status were expected to be housewives, she pursued her
doctorate in economics. Aside from English and Filipino, Mrs. Arroyo also fluently speaks
Spanish, Bisaya, Ilocano, and of course, Kapampangan.

NONOY AQUINO

The second Aquino to be President of the Philippines prided himself in his vision of “Daang
Matuwid” (Straight Path). Hence, President Noynoy prided in an administration that is free from
corruption as much as possible. He has also fought against the abuse of privileges of many
leaders and public officials who would use their positions for personal gain, as exemplified by his
no “wang-wang” principle or policy.

Servant leadership seemed to be the quality of Pnoy, who referred to the public as his “boss,”
and this guided his stay in Malacanang. During his presidency, different international bodies
upgraded the investment ratings of the Philippines.

Many employees in the bureaucracy have said that his leadership style of integrity and being
corruption-free has influenced the culture of government.

RODRIGO DUTERTE

Rodrigo Roa Duterte won a landslide victory in 2016 and will be president until 2022. Many
observe that he is much different from his predecessors. He has become popular and well-loved
because of his frankness as a leader. He is direct to the point, does not mince words, and takes a
no-nonsense approach to governance. He says it as it is to his fellow politicians and avoids the
confusing, even contradictory communication styles of other officials.

President Duterte is observed to be action-oriented and is bent on keeping his promises. The
man people love to refer to as “President DU30” wants his presidency free from corruption, and
has promised to fire people who are involved in corruption – a promise that he has fulfilled.

While the administration’s campaign against illegal drugs has been controversial, from a
leadership point-of-view, his determination shows clarity and commitment to his purpose and
vision. He has promised, “Change is coming.” This line has energized the government
bureaucracy and is slowly changing the culture throughout different agencies. Likewise, it has
also energized the Filipino people, who have all been thirsty for change and meaningful reforms.

As of this writing, President Duterte still has more than five years into his presidency. The nation
will still see much more about his leadership qualities in the weeks and years to come.

HITLER

Hitler was, first and foremost, determined to command personally. According to his so-called
Leader Principle (Führerprinzip), ultimate authority rested with him and extended downward. At
each level, the superior was to give the orders, the subordinates to follow them to the letter. In
practice the command relationships were more subtle and complex, especially at the lower
levels, but Hitler did have the final say on any subject in which he took a direct interest, including
the details of military operations, that is, the actual direction of armies in the field.

Every point had to be correct and consistent with previous briefings, for Hitler had an incredible
memory for detail and would become annoyed at any discrepancies. He supplemented that
information by consulting with his field commanders, on very rare occasions at the front, more
often by telephone or by summoning them back to his headquarters. As the briefing went on he
would state his instructions verbally for his staff to take down and then issue as written orders.

There were several broad sets of problems with Hitler's style of command. These revolved
around his personality, the depth of his knowledge, and his military experience, and they
exacerbated corresponding problems in the German command system. After the war, the picture
emerged of Hitler as a megalomaniac who refused to listen to his military experts and who, as a
consequence, lost the war for Germany. That picture emerged due largely to the efforts of his
former generals, who had their own reputations to protect. The truth was more complicated,
even if Hitler's failings remained at the heart of it.
