Leadership 101— How to Be Excellent Stewards with Sue Fries

Leaders have an important duty to serve as good stewards in the best manner possible. Being a great steward isn’t easy – it requires thoughtfulness, keen insight, and empathy. Such leaders make decisions that prioritize long-term sustainability rather than short-term gain and are considerate to the impact that their decisions have on all stakeholders and their environment. 

In this episode, Termite Lady Sue Fries joins Daniel to talk about what stewardship means in leadership and how to achieve excellence in that field. Listen in as they share battle-tested tips on how we can bloom wherever we’re planted, the importance of identifying healthy and unhealthy boundaries, how to be a maximizer, 2 things that leaders need to be, why excellence should always be the goal, and why we should keep going and not give up.

"We don't have to be in church to minister. We should be ministering every single day, every single moment." —Sue Fries
