Module 8.5 – Culture Building: Leadership in Action

📖 Lesson Summary:
In this lesson, Michael Brodeur explores how individual leadership extends into shaping a larger community culture. He emphasizes that before leaders can impact an organization, they must first learn to lead and influence individuals effectively.

Brodeur discusses the power of culture-building in leadership, explaining that a healthy, mission-driven culture is created when leaders model strong values, maintain consistency, and inspire others to do the same. This lesson lays the foundation for understanding how personal leadership ultimately creates large-scale community transformation.

📖 Scripture Focus:
“Let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.” — Matthew 5:16
