Relationships can make all the difference.

Many leaders look back on their past successes and failures to find that it's the nature of their relationships that have made the critical difference.

In an age when alliances and friendships are key, leaders who cannot create, develop and lead via the right kind of relationships are at a distinct disadvantage.

We invite you and your leadership teams to the next broadcast in the Ultimate Leadership series on CCN to discover what it takes to become a Relationally-Based Leader.

In partnership with Dr. John Townsend and Dr. Henry Cloud, CCN’s monthly Ultimate Leadership series helps leaders develop the character and skills needed to successfully meet the challenges of leadership in business and ministry.

This month, Dr. John Townsend, bestselling author and clinical psychologist, will give leaders a clear understanding of the advantages of relationally-based leadership versus performance-based leadership.

"Leaders whose lives, character, values and experience are based on relationships can achieve significant and satisfying goals," says Dr. Townsend.

On the other hand, when leaders attempt to guide, train, and motivate others in a performance-based manner, or when they attempt to create vision without connection, things will have difficulty moving forward.

In this practical broadcast you will:

• Learn how to form healthy relationships with those you lead and those you serve
• Discover how healthy relationships can help your ministry or task achieve success
• Learn to deal successfully with the relational struggles that leaders face.
  

Join us this month on Ultimate Leadership and give relationships a role in your leadership!
