What if God was one of us?

Convene Chair Andy Beal recently shared a powerful reflection on leadership, inspired by The Jesus I Never Knew by Philip Yancey.

When we think about Jesus, we don’t see power and prestige—we see humility, approachability, and courage. Isn’t that the kind of leader we all want to follow?

As leaders, we must ask: Are we leading with these same godly qualities, or are we relying on power and position?

Great leadership starts with character worth following.

Loneliness in the workplace is more than just an emotional struggle—it’s a leadership challenge that can impact productivity, employee engagement, and overall company culture. In today’s fast-paced business world, many leaders feel the weight of isolation, and their teams often experience the same sense of disconnection. But the good news is that leaders have the power to create environments where people feel valued, supported, and connected.

At Convene, we are passionate about helping faith-driven business leaders cultivate workplaces where people thrive—both professionally and spiritually. That’s why we’re excited to share an insightful article from our friends at Marketplace Chaplains, an organization dedicated to providing care and support to employees through workplace chaplaincy.

We encourage you to read the full article from Marketplace Chaplains and discover how you can implement these insights into your own leadership journey.
