One of the great needs in the market place and in the spheres of ministries is for the leaders of both businesses and organizations to have leaders that live an examined life. An examined life is a life where the heart is probed not only for giftedness and abilities  but, also for the stuff within that is deeper and mostly unexamined in today’s MBA programs and many divinity schools.

As I've said else where "shine and show" are not fruits of the Spirit and they are not what makes leadership healthy.  We sub-comb to "shine and show" when we do not look deeper; when we do not examine the quadrants of the heart of a leader.  Looking deeper requires wisdom. Looking deeper requires sage like probing and listening more to what is not said, than what is said explicitly.An examined life is a life that Socrates told us that is a life truly worth living.  He said, "An unexamined life is not worth living." And his words apply to leadership. An unexamined leader is dangerous.
