To lead other people with wisdom is to love them for who they are. It is to lift them up, not bring them down.

Wisdom says, ‘I see you. You matter. Your work matters. You are not a machine. You are a human being.’

In the writings of Mark Strom, ‘The wisdom traditions reflect life as it was experienced, not as moralist might claim it should be. Wisdom is therefore always contextual.’

‘Wisdom view life as a whole- a vast complex tapestry. It urges us to watch, to listen, to read, to discern, and to store up insights we can draw from later.’

‘Our lives are shaped by words.’

‘If character is who we are when no one can see us, then integrity is being the same person no matter who we are with or where we are.’

‘Leadership is not about getting the same group of people to do the same thing in the ways in a stable context.’

‘To lead with wisdom is to enable partnership.’

‘Truth yields clarity. Beauty yields elegance. Goodness yields strength of character and unity-in-diversity yields heart.’

‘Every challenge urges us to learn and to change.’

‘Leading well makes us vulnerable.’

‘Our deepest learning is sometimes hammered out on our worst leading.’
