In Collins book “Good to Great” he points out that all the great companies he studied have level five leaders. These leaders are characterized by:
1) A Drive for sustained results: They are driven to produce sustainable results for their organizations.
2) Consistently set up successors for success: They are more interested in the success of the organization than there own personal success. They want to leave a lasting legacy of an organization that continues to prosper.
3) Are Modest: They demonstrate compelling humility and act with quite, calm determination relying on inspired standards, not inspiring charisma, to motivate.
4) Take responsibility: They stand out because they take responsibility when things go wrong.
5) Are Organization focus: They are first and foremost concerned about the organization and it’s success which outweighs their drive for personal rewards.
By looking at these characteristics one begins to gather a picture of what a Great Leader looks and acts like, but how do we get there in our leadership? The 5 Best practices of Legacy Leadership© are proven to move ones leadership and its influence on others to the next level to begin ones legacy today.

Five Best Practices of Legacy Leadership©:
1. Holder of visions and values. This includes the following: clarify personal and organizational values; create, speak, expand and bring into focus the vision for the organization/church; and measure all actions against the visions and values. (Picture: A leader with a globe in both hands with commitment and values.) How are you personally a leader? How are you holding the vision? Do you have a clear and compelling vision? How do you model?
2. Creator of collaborative innovation. What are the key factors to have collaboration occur? They include: trust, honoring individual gifts, and adhering to intentional process.
3. Influencer of inspirational leadership. Key building blocks: be inspired and inspiring; speak and behave with integrity; and give active support to other leaders. What inspires you? How are you inspiring to others?
4. Advocator of differences. This one is the thing that is most missing in other leadership models. It involves pulling out strengths that are internal. So, what are the benefits of creating diverse teams? What is your unique gift? Key building blocks: know and embrace your own uniqueness; consistently create diverse teams; and achieve true team consensus.
5. Calibrator of accountabilities. This is about the outcome. How are you walking your talk? How do you do this every day? It involves concern for people and partnering. Key building blocks: clarify the expected outcomes; promote best efforts and adjust to meet goals; and measure actions against standards regularly. “This is getting err done”
