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.”
