Synopsis

The greatest myth of leadership is that you must be in charge in order to lead.

In this six-session, video study (DVD/streaming video sold separately), based on the How to Lead When You're Not in Charge book, Clay Scroggins shares his first-hand leadership experience as a pastor and his discovery that great leaders aren't paralyzed by not being in a position of recognized authority… Great leaders lead with or without that authority and learn to unleash their positive influence wherever they are.

He explains the nature of leadership and what it takes to lead yourself and others well with or without that impressive title.

In this study you will:

• Learn to leverage influence instead of authority
• Create a game plan for leading yourself well 
• Change the energy of your team by choosing positivity
• Cultivate influence by thinking critically, not being critical
• Avoid the trap of passivity when you feel out of control
• Learn an effective way to challenge people in authority over you

 

How to Lead When You're Not in Charge Study Guide will free you to become the great leader you want to be so you can make a difference right where you are—whether it’s in your workplace, community, or church. Even when you're not in charge.
