Eight indispensable friends a leader needs

 I once hear Gordon Macdonald talk about the importance of intentionally building key relationships into your life that I found very challenging.

He talked about eight indispensable friends that every leader requires.

·         A coach to help you grow?

·         Someone who stretches your mind?

·         A person to listen to your dreams?

·         Someone who laughs with you?

·         A person who cries with you?

·         Someone who rebukes you?

·         A person who plays with you?

·         Someone who seeks faith with you?

    

      Action:  

      1.  Place a tick against those for which you believe you do have such a friend. 

      2.  If any are left blank, consider who might be such a friend to fulfil that particular role currently missing in your life.
