It’s that time of year again–staff evaluations. I really enjoy this annual touch point with my direct reports. It’s a great opportunity to review performance and discuss issues.

Honestly, the larger we get the more complicated it gets to manage and motivate! It is the nature of the beast. There are more personalities and more layers so communication and conflict become greater challenges. But I’m so grateful for an amazing team with amazing attitudes! We work hard, but we also laugh a lot. And what a privilege to get paid to serve God full-time. If I ever take that for granted, it’s time to quit.
