Innovation3: The Dangerous Church in 2020 — Nancy Ortberg
Here are some key points from Nancy Ortberg out of TeamWorx2:
- “We innovate… because the Gospel of Christ transforms people.”
- “The Gospel is always provocative.”
- “Leadership is much more about managing tension than it is about solving problems.”
- “Some of us are rock stars, some of us are turtles.”
- “Change is always twofold: it is incremental and it is exponential.”
- “There is tension between passion and humility.”
- “Passion must have a corresponding humility.”
- “Innovation happens best in teams.”
- “Teams need to be a leadership strategy.”
- “Leaders need to know how to detect spiritual gifts.”
- “Leaders need to get people on their team that are better than they are.”
- “We have to get better about inviting younger generations to our teams.”
- “Learn to be a great question-asker.”
- “Rhetorical questions plant seeds that continue on.”
- “Risk comes with failure. They are kissing cousins.”
- “Fear is the biggest thing that stands in the way of risk. Increase curiosity instead.”
- “Collaboration is much more than a team. Collaboration is not abdication. It is insisting on cross-pollination.”
- “Trust is about character and competency — it is also about vulnerability.”
- “Hope is where leaders live because hope is deeply tied to the Gospel.”
