Vulnerability: Leading from a position of weakness: Allowing followers to make mistakes: One of the most powerful tools of training is to give novices opportunities to serve and minister before they have it all together. Skill sets are learned on the job. Character formation requires the heat of the battle… Successful leaders or managers know that greater productivity comes from letting those working for you have relative freedom in doing their assigned tasks their own way. In attitude, we could define this as facilitating rather than controlling. (93-94)

Frequently, the potential leader is the one who faces the biggest tests and crises of spirituality. (95)

Chandapilla says it well: ‘A person who wants to shut up his inner life from others, who enjoys being alone and having personal privacy or who wants to be a recluse should not enter into the program of leadership training. Such a person may have fans or admirers, but he cannot reproduce himself in others. Reproducing oneself and building up others are basic to the Christian program because Christianity is a communal faith and not merely a personal religion of the individual.’ (P.T.Chandapilla, The Master Trainer, 32) (101)
