 BUILD A QUALITY TEAM                  No man is an island. Success is not a feat you attain all alone. You need people to arrive at your destined goal. Not just any people but the right set of people. The set of people a leader surround himself with are called team. The team members include council members, advisers and counselors The quality of the team a leader surround himself with will determine his success. Leaders that do not build up a team around them get worn out easily. It is another thing to have a team and it is another thing to trust your team by delegating duties to them. Assigning duties to them give them a sense of responsibility. Believe in them and gives them authority to do the work and make them accountable not only to you but to the whole team. Moses was doing it all alone, he could have died before his time until Jethro advised him that he would worn out if he continued to judge the people all alone by himself. He chose a team and delegate duties to them. Jesus
