Q3.4 Vision

Q’ing the Q source is always an honor. You learn much more than you can expect discussing the topics at hand.

This morning we discussed Q3.4 Vision. – “Recognizing Advantage And The Movement Required To Achieve It”

We started with a quote from John C. Maxell, who wrote in the book “The 21 Irrefutable Laws of Leadership”

“Great leaders always seem to embody two seemingly disparate qualities. They are both highly visionary and highly practical. Their vision enables them to see beyond the immediate. They can envision what’s coming and what must be done. Leaders possess and understanding of how:

  • Mission provides purpose – answering the question, Why?
  • Vision provides a picture – answering the question, What?
  • Strategy provides a plan – answering the question, How?”

YHC the told the story of Billy Mitchell.  A visionary for air power for the US military, who lost his career (court-martialed) and livelihood for his vision. Unfortunately, he passed away before his vision came to reality.

Brigadier General William "Billy" Mitchell, US Army

Q Source continued covering “Cowboy Ethics”.  4.  Do what has to be done  5.  Be tough, but fair  6.  When you make a promise, keep it  7.  Ride for the brand

We discussed how the F3 culture keeps us accountable for living third, although we sometimes fail.  Riding for the brand….who are you representing?  Your family name….F3….your employer…..and the church as a Christian.  Go forth and represent!
