To be an effective leader you must learn your boundaries, you must learn
your limitations, you must learn your breaking points, and you must learn
what is too much for you. You must know your elastic limits to prevent
permanent deformation*- Femi Adediran, October 2015
You must be leader enough to disagree with people without disliking them.
You must understand as a leader that disagreement does not mean betrayal-*

A leader must be comfortable with controversy. You must be comfortable
with controversy before you take a lead. Every controversy is to give a
leader thick skin in preparation for the next level. Your controversy point
is your training point for the next level-* Femi Adediran, October 2015
Controversy is part of leadership. The race for the government house is

Greatest Lemacites,
There are Degrees of Leadership
You can be a leader and not be the leader
There are people involved in major Leadership while some are into minor
leadership
Your gifting and calling determines what degrees of Leadership you are
involved in per time
You may be able to lead at a particular level or be able to lead some kind
of unit and not necessarily be the main leader
Don’t let people push you beyond your competence
To be an effective leader you must learn your boundaries, you must learn
your limitations, you must learn your breaking points, and you must learn
what is too much for you. You must know your elastic limits to prevent
permanent deformation.
Leadership comes with a lot of disagreement
People will disagree with you many atimes as a leader but you must
understand that disagreement does not necessarily mean disapproval
That people disagree with you does not necessarily connote departure from
you
You must be leader enough to disagree with people without disliking them
You must understand as a leader that disagreement does not mean betrayal
Leaders who have bad interpretation of their roles would rather fight their
“perceived enemies” rather than think through the issues
A good leader focuses more on the issues rather than the “perceived
enemies”.
When you have a bad role mentality as a leader you will fight more rather
than think more hence driving away your supporter who perhaps disagree with
you at the moment
A leader must be comfortable with controversy. You must be comfortable with
controversy before you take a lead
Every controversy is to give a leader thick skin in preparation for the
next level
Your controversy point is your training point for the next level
You were pre heated in the ovens so you can become comfortable with what
you were called to do. That is because controversy is part of your calling
Leaders misinterpret their followers a times
When people say they don’t like you, they actually in essence are referring
to what you do and not you. You must be able to differentiate between
issues and personality.
People who say they don’t like you don’t in most cases don’t even know you
Here is wisdom: Don’t ever say you don’t like somebody you have never met
or known before. A whole lot of times people are totally different from
their circumstance or situation and you must also remember that your
perception determines who people are to you
Controversy is part of leadership. The race for the government house is
essentially training you for the hell in the government house
You may be doing a good job really but this does not mean you are going to
be recognized for the good job…
Best,
