Are you called upon to give wisdom and direction, inspiration and hope, vision and paths of execution – sometimes with little notice? Leaders get this all the time - and being a leader at home, at church or in an organization - is not easy. So where does one access the resources to make decisions and to lead? If you desire to be better prepared the next time you feel discouraged…by leadership indecision; by hardships of your role pressing in on you; or by waning enthusiasm about being a leader… Mentoring Wisdom could be the encouragement you need. Carson Pue knows - perhaps better than anyone - that 'two people shorten the road' and sometimes you just need a word of wisdom. This mentor, seasoned by experience, shares a collection of spiritually insightful thoughts. With gripping honesty these practical nuggets are delivered as if you are sitting across the desk from a trusted friend. Included with each is a scriptural verse pointing towards faith and God's promise to walk with you through each day. For each topic, Carson hones in on leadership values while providing tested practices learned through his lifework developing servant leaders. Woven into each section is a prayer that can be used to guide a leader's own prayers into their situation. Every page invites God to speak to the reader and enjoy the peace of His presence.

About Arrow Leadership...

Are you leading, yet sensing the need to sharpen your skills? To build your leadership toolbox? Is leadership your calling? Would you like a mentor to help assess your needs and then walk you through an individualized development plan? Maybe we should talk...

Good leadership decisions often start with access to the right network. Today a global network of Christian leaders have gone through a transformational leadership development process known as the Arrow Leadership Program. Imagine having access to a lifetime of resource and wisdom from world class experts and peers.

The world is a very different place today. There is no “one size fits all” solution. That is why Arrow’s highly individualized, multi-layered process is so effective. Our mentoring program is recognized academically by top colleges but perhaps more importantly Arrow is known for being intentional, spiritual and relevant. The most common words used by alumni of their Arrow experience—pivotal, transformational, and networked.

Do you long to be the leader God desires you to be? A leader with a finger on the pulse of your ministry or business? A leader that can operate in a high performance environment and that can inspire a team to go beyond expectations?

You will walk away from this experience a different person, a different leader.
