Why this is here

Most of my week is spent with founders, systems and strategy. But the reason I do this work is older than any business framework. I believe people are made to create, to lead and to serve, and that faith in Christ can stand up to the toughest questions a thinking person can ask.

This is where I write and teach about both.

The Jethro Principle

The founder bottleneck is 3,000 years old.

In Exodus 18, Moses sat from morning to evening settling every dispute himself. His father-in-law, Jethro, told him plainly: what you are doing is not good. You will wear yourself out, and the people with you. Raise capable leaders and share the load.

I call it the Jethro Principle, and it sits under all my work. Leaders are not meant to be the answer to every question. They are meant to multiply.

A founder should remain important without remaining the bottleneck.

Invite me

I speak to churches, campus fellowships, leadership retreats and business audiences on faith, calling and leadership.
