True success hinges on collaborative team work. To lead effectively, a king needs a growing population; a prince needs his subjects. To quote Proverbs 14:28:
The mark of a good leader is loyal followers…

…leadership is nothing without a following.

Great followers follow by leading. Success happens when great leaders AND great followers work in unison … it takes a great team to fulfill a dream!

Thanks for the reminder that a leader is only successful if they have followers. Reminds me of the many parts of the body methaphor in the New Testament
