What do I know

Last night I was listening to Doctor Ben Carson interview. "The more I know, the more I realise how much I do not know." He said that he learnt that it was the people who read a lot of books became the richest in mind and wealth. If he works with someone who has stopped reading, he stops trusting them.
I was reading an article on organisations that grow in good and bad ways. The difference is the organisation that grows in a positive structure only promotes people who have a good record of completing the tasks put before them.
Often people in community organisations are promoted to positions because of who they know and not on what they achieve. It is imperative to promote people who connect with people not just control people. Does your community organisation promote on results of achievement and their ability to connect with people.
John Maxwell speaks of selecting people who touch the heart of the people before you can use the hand of the people. Have you connected all the people in your organisation or are you trying to control them. Why not go out and touch their heart.
