Andy Stanley - Leading from beneath

The fine art of challenging organization decay-without compromising your integrity.

  1. When an instruction is given, follow through now; debrief later.
  2. Never verbalize your frustration with the process in front of other team members. Public loyalty results in private leverage.
  3. Don’t confuse your insights with moral imperatives.
  4. If you don’t learn to lead under, you won’t have as many opportunities to lead over. Your ability to lead others is directly related to your ability to follow others.
  5. When you can’t follow, then it’s time to get off the team.
