What kind of leader does it take to build a Good Place organization—where people flourish, communities prosper, and economic regeneration becomes reality?
In this episode of the Business is Good podcast, Chris Young offers a clear and compelling definition of a Kingdom-minded leader: someone who stewards, serves, and sacrifices for a purpose greater than themselves.
Chris and Jim explore how this kind of leadership starts with humility and is rooted in stewardship rather than ownership. They discuss how leaders can balance authority and responsibility without losing sight of their calling to serve, and why understanding the characteristics of God's Kingdom is essential to building a faithful, flourishing workplace.
You'll hear about:
The cultural impact of humble leadership
Why stewardship is a more powerful framework than ownership
What it means to serve at the pleasure of the King
How kingdom leadership fosters learning, trust, and long-term transformation
If you're leading a business or organization and wondering how to create a culture that truly reflects Kingdom values, this episode lays the groundwork.
As Chris reminds us, leadership isn't about controlling outcomes—it's about creating environments where others can thrive.
