Listen "Mac Lake on Building a Leadership Pipeline, Leading Yourself, and Why Confidence is the New Competency"
Episode Synopsis
Alan Briggs is joined by leadership developer and Multiply Group founder Mac Lake to unpack the growing leadership crisis—and how we fix it.
Mac shares why so many organizations struggle with developing leaders rather than recruiting them, and how we can begin to shift the culture from leadership borrowing to leadership building. They dive deep into:
Why leadership development is still the #1 challenge for churches and nonprofits
How to disciple leaders like Jesus did—slowly, intentionally, and with purpose
The overlooked importance of “pre-leadership” and helping people see their own potential
The difference between competency and confidence—and how to build both
Why Mac finally wrote Leading Yourself, and how it's helping people define their mission and grow their influence
Health, habits, and why maximizing your energy is a leadership strategy
Whether you’re a pastor, entrepreneur, or emerging leader, this conversation will stretch you and equip you.
