Qualities of a leader

[Goceman86]

well I need to make up a guide line for what qualifications (i guess you would say) or guidelines a person must have before they can become a leader in my Youth Group.

stuff like,
must respect other leaders, must put the kids before yourself, must pray for your small group and youth group everyday, must attend all meetings every week, stuff like that.

any suggestions?

Qualities of a Christ-centered leader should include: Integrity, Dedication, Sense of humor (relieves tensions), Magnanimity, Openness, Humility, Fairness, and Assertiveness. You find someone with those qualities and you don't have to worry about "stuff like, must respect other leaders, must put the kids before yourself, must pray for your small group and youth group everyday, must attend all meetings every week, stuff like that."

Best of luck!!

A true leader never expects things of others that he/she is unwilling to do. A real leader can become part of the team if needed, and not feel lowered because of it.
A true leader can inspire and encourage others. Leaders must be able and willing to question their decisions, and call on their team for input in the decision making process. Leaders are patient and kind in all situations.

Be careful not to make it legalistic and impossible. When God calls us to live for Him He plans on working in us to change us. It is He who molds us to become like His Son. That molding will take a lifetime. Sure there needs to be some minimum requirements, but a lot of grace too. May the Holy Spirit help you in choosing the person/s.

Cheers.

That he or she will lead the Youth Group as GOD would have me to with the best of my ability. Then you fill in the spaces as they go.


No more, No less.

I was going to come on and say that very first thing you said. 'Be at peace with authority to be authority'.

That is the most important thing.

Be humble: a leader's job is to serve everyone else, not to be served. A good leader is the best listener, someone who cares the most.
