Continuing to prototype its A3.business ministry to marketplace leaders in Seoul, South Korea. Just recently 9 CEOs and entrepreneurs gathered for the second ever A3.business session.
The generation gap can be huge and sometimes disorienting in the workplace. With this challenge, my strategies are always derived from our understanding of leadership in the multi-generational situation. In other words, what would good leaders do to bridge this gap?
The art of leadership when working with multiple generations “Leadership” to me is more than just one person, an individual leader—but beyond himself or herself to include the interactive influence between people for a particular goal. As you may know, Asians are quite hierarchical. And, in the context of Japan, there is a saying:
At an A2 session in a restricted country recently, I was astounded by the level of impact that investing in twelve key pastors has on a nation. After more than twelve years of investing in twelve choice leaders every two years, the leveraged influence was stunning to see. This was especially true knowing that, due
All over the world the question is repeated: How can we multiply Christ-like servant leaders? And how can we encourage Christian leaders to work together, rather than in isolation or in competition?

Everyone is looking for meaning There are many people that I come across who are looking for meaning and purpose in their life. I meet them all the time. This is why it’s critical that marketplace ministry exists. Most people grow up thinking, if you study hard, you get into a good college, and then
