Description

In this powerful and practical episode, Ann sits down with Lyle Wells, president of Integrus Leadership, former pastor and college basketball coach, and author of the new book Easy to Follow: Trading Toxic Leadership for the Love of Christ.Lyle shares a refreshingly simple framework: leadership isn’t a title—it’s a behavior that influences others and creates outcomes. Together, Ann and Lyle unpack what it truly means to lead like Jesus, exploring how diligence, humility, and service shape leaders who are both faithful and effective.They also dive into why servant leadership is about helping others learn, grow, dare, and change, how to craft an 8–10 word mission statement that actually guides your decisions, and how to become a lighthouse leader—someone who brings direction, connection, and protection to those they lead.If you’ve ever wondered what it looks like to model your leadership after Jesus in today’s world, this conversation will equip and challenge you to start right where you are.🔑 Three Key Takeaways1️⃣ Leadership is behavior, not position. The way you act—not your title—determines your influence and impact.2️⃣ God measures diligence and service, not perfection. Faithful, persistent service is the true mark of leadership that pleases Him.3️⃣ Clarity beats complexity. A short, memorable mission statement—what Lyle calls your “tweet or tattoo”—keeps your leadership grounded and consistent.✍️ Quote Worth Remembering: “Jesus was easy to follow—but He wasn’t easy on His followers.” — Lyle Wells📚 Resources & MentionsEasy to Follow: Trading Toxic Leadership for the Love of Christ by Lyle WellsIntegrus Leadership — leadership training, coaching, and resourcesThe Five-Day Leader by Lyle WellsStoryBrand by Donald MillerScripture references: Deuteronomy 3:28 and Luke 9:51–56Bob Goff’s Writing Workshops🙌 Connect with Ann⁠Website⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠LinkedIn⁠⁠Join the Launch Team⁠ for Faith at Work: A Practical Guide to Aligning Your Career with Who God Created You to Be → ⁠Sign up here
