HOW WE LEAD

The Principles of “Leadership The GracedLife Way”

TGLC believes in democratizing and normalizing leadership development among the everyday African youth. We want to make leadership development a lifestyle at every corner, on every street in every neighborhood in Africa. To achieve this, TGLC has espoused 7 principles that underpin how we intend to accomplish our mission and realize our vision- we call this “Leadership The GracedLife Way”. These principles can be broken into who a GracedLife leader is (3S) and how a GracedLife leader acts (4G).

Stewardship

We view stewardship on two fronts. First, we recognize that our individual lives and all its blessings (advantages, privileges, talents, abilities) are gifts from God and hence behooves us to manage, nurture, and develop them to be useful to mankind. Second, is to receive the people we serve (lead) as priceless possessions entrusted to us to love, care for, and help reach their full potential.

Servant Leadership

We believe and teach that leaders are called to be servants. To be obsessively concerned with how, when and what to do to best serve the people they lead.

Selflessness

Closely related to servant leadership is our belief in placing the needs and interests of others before ourselves. We strongly advocate that; “it is not for ourselves at all that we are born.”

Godliness

The principle of godliness houses the fundamental values that we encourage our leaders to possess and exhibit. This includes integrity, excellence, discipline, and diligence.

Growth Mindset

We ask our leaders to act with a growth mindset. We define this as possibility thinking - where leaders, on the basis of being Africans, do not allow themselves to be limited in their thoughts of what is possible. Rather, we encourage a learn-it-all mindset and invite leaders to be curious thinkers and active creators of the future.

Generational Thinking

We challenge ourselves and teach our leaders to make an impact in their generation while leaving traceable footprints for the next. We strive to create a culture of trans-generation thinking within our network, thereby helping us to act with the next generation in mind.

Global Thinking

We tell our leaders that the world is their stage. It is okay to start locally, but we remind them to create solutions that can touch every corner of the globe.
