Individuals such as Abraham, Joseph, Moses, Esther, David, Daniel, Nehemiah, Ruth, Peter, Paul, Timothy, Barnabas, and of course, Jesus leap off the page. A quick glance reveals that, on one hand, they were all so different. They had diverse personalities, temperaments, gifts, training, and challenges. This demonstrates that there is no one leadership type . On the other hand, they held some attributes in common.
Visionary Leaders are, first of all, men and women of vision.
They believe that, by God's grace, the impossible or at least the improbable can become possible. To put it another way, leaders are people of faith. They believe God is at work in the world, and they trust Him to fulfill His promises. Abraham left the security of home, family, and friends to search for the promised land, a land of dreams. Moses trusted God to set his unarmed, weak, helpless people free from the most powerful nations on earth.
