And through these ups and down, leaders must have faith.
Leaders must have faith that there will be better days ahead
Leaders must have faith that they will see others grow
Leaders must have faith that others can take over
Leaders must have faith that they can make a difference
Leaders must have faith that when they fail they can be redeemed
Leaders must have faith that there is good in the world
Leaders must have faith that the new generation has better ideas than the past generations
Leaders must have faith that young leaders have the ability to lead well
Leaders must have faith that there is a God that loves them
Leaders must have faith that in their weakness they are made strong
Leaders must have faith that there are smarter people than themselves
Leaders must have faith that competition is good
Leaders must have faith that innovation can change industries
Leaders must have faith that people still believe
Leaders must have faith that their team is awesome
Leaders must have faith that new ideas are the lifeblood of their organization
Leaders must have faith that the end isn’t the end
Leaders must have faith that growth comes through the pain
Leaders must have faith that fresh ideas will come into their organization
Leaders must have faith that new leaders will rise up and take the leadership baton
In the end, leaders must have faith to lead well.
