A good quarterback usually hands the football to someone else who is responsible to gain yardage. He will either hand off to a running back or pass to a receiver.

As a leader, always be looking for things you can hand off to someone else—and not just the awful jobs you don't want to do. Like a good quarterback, hand off the tasks which will develop the talent in your "receivers."

You are developing the gifts of God in them; let them take credit for the "winning touchdown."

I hear people say, "Well, it's a shame, but as the organization grows, you reach the limit of people's capabilities. You have to fire them and get others in order to progress any further."

No. That is inconsistent with the Word of God. Growing ministries or businesses do not have to reach the limit of the staff's capabilities.

Blend your willingness to make every educational opportunity available to the people who work for you. Encourage them to develop their natural gifts and talents, and then entrust them with additional responsibilities as the Lord gives you direction.

You will see them grow into newer and larger arenas of responsibility than ever before. And as they grow, your organization will grow from within.
