In his book, “Lasting Impact, 7 Powerful Conversations That Will Help You Grow Your Church,” Carey Nieuwhof said, “… Not wanting to disappoint people fuels conflict within leaders.  So how do you deal with this?  Go see a counselor.  Get on your knees.  Do whatever you need to do to get over the fear of disappointing people.  Courageous leadership is like courageous parenting.  Don’t do what your kids want you to do; do what you believe is best for them in the end.  Eventually, many of them will thank you…” 

Wow!

Lead on leaders.  Lead on!  And do whatever it takes to get over the fear of disappointing those you are leading!
