Create Your Culture

It is the responsibility of the leader to create his/ her culture.
Oh did I mention what culture is?
Well culture: def: the way we do things. So if my culture is about leadership- then its the way we do things- on a leadership bias.
Here's an observation about culture, you either create it or it gets created by itself. The latter is most dangerous, because you cannot control it at all. So therefore you will soon realize that the way things are done in your church are not due to you at all. What a shame that when visitors or upcoming potential leaders arrive they will adapt to a culture that does not rereflect you. Is this making sense?
Some insight on how to create the culture you want:
1) Initiate what you want
2) Continually model what you want
For example- if want a family atmosphere then you got to take the neccesary approaches to creating that
3) Influence the key influencers
Who can team up with you to create that culture
4) Project and picture what you want
What gets pictured gets done..how thru conversations, sermons, deliberate instructions on the what and when
Lastly:
5) Give it time
Rome wasn't built in a day- neither will culture be created in a weekend service.
