The Making of an Effective Leader
The Making of a Good Leader
Every person has the opportunity to exhibit good leadership qualities. As a realtor in Lancaster, PA, I understand this better than most. I spent 22 years as a pastor and learned so much about leadership. Helping sellers and buyers in a transaction in the Lancaster, PA real estate business also includes important leadership traits.
The first quality of leadership I articulate is, "Positive, Passionate Presence." If you are in the business of leadership in your occupation or family, you must be present. For the buyer or seller in Lancaster, PA a realtor needs to be present for showings, inspections, to field questions, give timely feedback and work effectively.
A good leader realizes it is necessary to be present from a symbolic standpoint. I was criticized when I was a pastor when I was not present during a week long Vacation Bible School. I came to understand when I had no responsibility at an event, I still needed to be present to show my support and to encourage those who were responsible. The same is true for a realtor who works in advocacy for his/her client.
Without positive, passionate presence, a Lancaster, PA real estate professional will be less successful in doing his/her job. If there is a leadership vacuum, a leader will arise and exert leadership.
How well are you doing in developing your positive, passionate presence leadership quality? Do you need to improve?

The birth of a non-profit housing corporation
The church in Lancaster, PA I attend, East Chestnut Street Mennonite Church has recently developed a non-profit housing corporation called Chestnut Housing Corporation. For months persons have been discussing this idea and with the help of many persons from the church it is a legally recognized non-profit.
If this is not exciting enough, we were able to buy our first property at 639 East Chestnut, Lancaster, PA 17602 which is pictured below.
The Chestnut Housing Corporation is becoming organized and has begun fund-raising. They will partner with Tabor Community Services to provide affordable housing in the Lancaster area. 639 E Chestnut Street will need much renovation and repair to make it a wonderful home. Persons can donate time, prayer, and encouragement. If interested in giving a donation or learning more about the project contact Sue Waterfield, Marlissa Yoder Bontrager or me.
