Great leaders realize that their followers are leaders in training.  They are growing in their leadership skills, celebrating their victories and learning from their mistakes.  But followers aren’t merely “waiting to lead someday.” They are leaders right now.  A wise leader once said, “Don’t look at people as they are now; look at who they will become 5 years from now.  Great leaders realize that their followers are also their legacy.  They seek to leave a legacy like that of Henrietta Mears, a Christian educator in the 1950’s.  Among the people she mentored were Bill Bright, founder of Campus Crusade for Christ; Jim Rayburn, founder of Young Life; Richard Halverson, Chaplain of the U.S. Senate: and evangelist Billy Graham.
