Vision or Action - or both?

Can we really push a vision to our people while driving action? What - you ask... How dare you say that leaders could push a vision without some type of action to follow it up. Well - for those of you who think this post is too far out there, take a look around. How many of us sit in meetings, whether in business or ministry, and hear great visions but find ourselves six months later, or maybe 12 months later, in the same exact spot with no change whatsoever?

Now do I have your ear? I bet I do... because most of us have or are there every single day.

So - as leaders. Do me a favor. Stop casting vision with no action. Stop trying to drive change through only emotions. Cast the vision, but then live and die to the action steps that must get you there.

Vision and Action must coincide and live harmoneously together! If not, vision without actions is "dead" and actions without vision is a "waste of time".

Do both please.
