There are so many key components to a successful band and you can probably come up with a bunch of strategies with key points to follow. What I have learned in my many successes and failures is that there are very basic guidelines that every band needs to follow. Just like how can decorate your house in many styles and colors etc. BUT, every house that is built always has a brick wall underneath it and that wall is called a FOUNDATION.
Every band must have a foundation or guidelines that must be followed. That single greatest thing you can do as a leader is L-O-V-E your team. You might be thinking, “Well duh that makes sense!” It is unfortunate that most leaders don’t know how to LOVE their team.
Here are a few tips that I’ve come up with that you can apply to your team. Here is what LOVE IS..
Serving your team is a Key ingredient to showing LOVE to your team. A special book states:
“Owe no one anything, except to love each other, for the one who has loved another has fulfilled the law.”
John 13:8
“For you were called to freedom, brothers. Only do not use your freedom as an opportunity for the flesh, but through love, serve one another.”
Galations 5:13
What powerful simple scriptures I just love it. It is extremely simple to understand but yet kinda hard to apply because we are so busy with our daily lives. Knowing our priorities is what we need to think about if you lead a team. A team member wants a leader who cares enough to show action. This is something you need to think and consider about before you conduct your next meeting.
Ok thanks a lot fellas for reading I truly appreciate you. Please if anybody has any other ways to show LOVE for your team please let me know right below in the comments section.
