When we adopt a biblical approach to leadership, we begin uncovering overlooked leaders, empowering teams, and building lasting, mission-driven impact rooted in purpose and stewardship. The future of transformational leadership may be hiding in plain sight

As an investor or executive, you're trained to spot undervalued assets. But are we applying that same lens to the people around us?

The world often assigns 'interest' based on status, title, or worldly success. Yet, some of the most profound wisdom and strength comes from those the world overlooks. God's perspective is different—He sees the immense value in the humble, the quiet, the 'uninteresting.'

There's a powerful lesson here: what seems insignificant today can become the cornerstone of tomorrow. The Lord Himself often chooses the humble to build great things, revealing their true value over time. These are the founding mothers and fathers of real, lasting change.

This isn't just a spiritual lesson; it's a strategic one. By learning to see people through this lens, we can unlock hidden potential in our teams, our communities, and even ourselves.

Where in your organization might the most valuable 'assets' be hiding in plain sight?
