Faith

In Part 1 and Part 2 of this series, we explored how your beliefs serve as your leadership compass and how to close the gap between what you profess and what you practice. But I know what some of you are thinking:

“This sounds nice in theory, but the marketplace is brutal. Faith-driven leadership is a luxury I can’t afford when I’m fighting for survival.”

I used to think this too. I thought faith made leaders soft, naive, and unprepared for the harsh realities of business.

I was wrong.

Faith doesn’t make you weak—it makes you antifragile.

In Part 1 of this series, we explored how your beliefs serve as your leadership compass, providing clarity in complex decisions through the Three Filters framework. But knowing your compass is just the beginning. The real test comes when you have to follow it into uncharted territory.

Today, we tackle the challenge that trips up most leaders: the gap between what we believe and how we actually lead when pressure mounts.

Today, every leader grapples with a fundamental question: How do we lead authentically when the world tells us to separate our deepest beliefs from our professional decisions? How do we integrate faith and work in a way that doesn’t compromise either, but actually strengthens both?
