Listen "05 - Growth by Subtraction"
Episode Synopsis
When a leader casts a bold vision or enlarges their facilities to accommodate growth, it’s almost always accompanied by a certain percentage of people leaving. It throws some of these leaders into a bit of a panic: “Wait a minute! How can anyone not be excited about the clear direction we’re heading toward? How can they deny the energy and momentum we’re experiencing? Why don’t they see what I see?”
From the human perspective, it often doesn’t make sense. But from the divine vantage point, it makes perfect sense. Growth often starts with subtraction. Today’s podcast will outline three reasons why this happens.
You’ll discover a better way to interpret the “pruning of people” that almost always accompanies growth. It will help you resist the urge to panic when the “thinning of the herd” happens.
