The Leadership Kompass

  Leading Through Communication That Creates Change Leadership is influence but influence without clarity is chaos in disguise. Reading Communicating for a Change by Andy Stanley and Lane Jones changed my perspective, not just as a communicator, but as a leader responsible for guiding people toward vision and transformation. The book opens with an unexpected teacher, a truck driver coaching a preacher on how to deliver messages that don’t just sound good but actually change lives . It’s humorous, yes, but it’s also a mirror to many of us in leadership: we’ve been “talking” without truly connecting. Stanley’s challenge is simple but uncomfortable: If our communication doesn’t lead to transformation, then maybe our goal isn’t truly change, maybe it’s comfort. That statement alone is enough to make any leader stop mid-sentence and rethink. The heart of his model is the ME-WE-GOD-YOU-WE framework ; an intentional journey that starts by building personal connection (ME), findi...

  Breaking Through the Gate: From Powerless Spectator to Kingdom Architect Why Monday Morning is Your Most Sacred Hour The Great Gathering: When Leaders Get Stuck at the Entrance Picture a magnificent concert hall with thousands of people crowded outside the entrance, creating chaos and confusion, arguing about the music they can't hear, debating the performance they're not experiencing, and critiquing the conductor they've never seen. Meanwhile, the actual concert, the transformation, the beauty, the purpose they came for is happening just beyond the doors they refuse to enter. This is the vivid metaphor Moses Mukisa paints in "Commotion at the Gate," and it's not just about religious practice it's a profound diagnosis of leadership paralysis that affects boardrooms, classrooms, communities, and every sphere of influence where people gather at the threshold of their potential but never step through. "Instead of entering God's rest, we g...

From Sanctuary to Society: The Revolutionary Leadership Paradigm of Kingdom Impact.  Redefining Leadership Beyond the Four Walls The Great Confinement: When Leaders Stay Safe Picture this: A brilliant surgeon spending their entire career practicing on mannequins in medical school, never stepping into an operating room. An architect designing magnificent buildings that exist only on paper, never seeing them rise from the ground. A teacher preparing lessons that are never taught to students who need them. Absurd? Absolutely. Yet Sunday Adelaja, in his transformative work "Church Shift," argues that this is precisely what's happening with kingdom leadership today. We've created a generation of leaders who are perfectly equipped for sanctuary service but woefully unprepared for societal transformation. "The church fulfills its mandate when it changes society, not when it is confined to its sanctuary and Sunday school classrooms." This isn't just ...

Living and Leading with Kingdom Clarity: A New Kind of Leadership from Within. Have you ever felt like something is missing in your leadership journey? Like you're playing the game, doing the work, showing up but still not fully operating in your purpose or potential? Reading Rediscovering the Kingdom by Myles Munroe was my moment of personal disruption; a leadership wake-up call that flipped my understanding of influence, purpose, and what it truly means to live and lead.

The Leadership Test You’re Probably Ignoring: Financial Stewardship That Actually Honors God Inspired by “Financial Stewardship” by Andrew Wommack Let’s talk about the test many leaders flunk not because they’re not brilliant, but because they underestimate it. It’s not a strategy test. Not a vision test. Not even a character test. It’s a money test. Yes, money. That thing we’d rather keep out of spiritual conversations and leadership retreats. But here’s the thing: how you handle money says more about your leadership than your title ever will. In Financial Stewardship , Andrew Wommack flips the script on traditional thinking around money and gives leaders a clear message: God doesn’t need your money. He wants your heart. And money just happens to be one of the fastest ways to see where your heart really is. Let’s break this down, leadership style.  Stewardship, Not Ownership Wommack reminds us that the earth is the Lord’s, and that includes your income, business...

  Leading with Wealth Wisdom: What Every Leader Needs to Know About Financial Stewardship Inspired by “Straight Forward Financial Growth” by Moses Mukisa Let’s be honest; leadership and money are awkward dance partners. We admire leaders with vision, charisma, and strategy. But the moment we bring money into the room, many leaders stiffen. Some feel unqualified. Others feel disqualified. Many just hope no one notices that their finances are more “chaos theory” than stewardship. But here’s the truth: if you’re a leader, you’re also a financial steward whether you realize it or not. And Moses Mukisa’s Straight Forward Financial Growth is the bold, clear-eyed coaching session many of us never knew we needed. Let’s unpack why... 💡 The Financial Thermostat: Why Your Bank Balance Follows Your Mind Mukisa brilliantly introduces the “financial thermostat” concept. Every leader has a subconscious “money temperature” they’re comfortable with. When money exceeds that level, they tend to s...
