gotta learn not to be so 事工化...

事工是为人而作的。。。


Read this off the internet....


How you lead and manage your team is extremely important. Some leaders are very
focused on service project. They run a tight ship and get the work done efficiently.
Such leaders tend to be directive. While this gets the work done, it can limit the learning
potential of the programme and deprive participants of the chance to grow.

You should choose leadership styles that are appropriate to the maturity of the group and
complexity of the task at hand. Be flexible and give space for your participants to step up and
step out to take up challenges.

The following are also some general pointers for you as leader to consider.
• Be patient, honest and open.
• Facilitate learning, don’t preach.
• Be fair, neutral and consistent in your actions.
• Encourage ownership.
• Allow your participants to experiment. Don’t be a wet blanket.
• Affirm, don’t criticize.
