I had the pleasure of meeting Dave Buehring today. Dave is the founder of Lionshare Leadership Group, an organization that trains people to be better leaders. His approach is distinctively Christian, but anyone could learn from his ideas.

Dave is someone who gets two of the major emerging trends relating to leadership, particularly in the nonprofit sector.

First of all, Dave understands that there is a void of leadership in the nonprofit world as many people who jump into the industry right out of college get burned out. And, with many other folks not jumping in until it's time for a second career, there is a clear void of quality leaders in their late twenties and thirties. Dave is training people to fill that gap.

Secondly, Dave understands that emerging generations are highly skeptical. Because people today are growing up in a post-Enron world, and because the easy dissemination of information due to the proliferation of technology makes it easy to poke holes in our leaders, trying to find someone who lives a consistent life and finishes well is nearly an impossible task. In steps Dave.

I thoroughly enjoy meeting people who get 'it.' These people make me glad to do what I do so that the world can be a better place.

If you are interested in more information about Dave and his organization, check out their website.
