THE POWER OF PASSING IT ON
By Dr. Myles Munroe.
1. The Greatest Act Of Leadership Is Mentoring.

6. Your assignment has a shelf life.
7. You will die one day; so train your replacement.

9. True leaders do not seek followers, followers are attracted to true leaders.
10. The Greatest obligation of true leadership is to transfer your deposit to the next generation.

33. The ultimate goal of true leadership is not to maintain followers but to produce leaders.
34. The first act of a true leader is identifying your replacement and you begin mentoring them.
