Proverbs 14:33 (NLT) Wisdom is enshrined in an understanding heart; wisdom is not found among fools.
Wisdom’s place in the heart is not ostentatious. It is quiet - a strength that leads to understanding. In their groundbreaking work, Daft and Lengel, in Fusion Leadership point out that leaders must have heart to lead. The “Fusion Leader stay[s] emotionally connected with people and work…and are collaborative and interdependent.” It is a wisdom that integrates grace and truth: not just the cold, hard facts of truth and not just the warm safety of grace; rather, this wise leader combines them in a way that compels understanding, positive emotional reaction and change. This leader’s corporate vision “pursues higher purpose that touches the heart.” Whatever possesses a heart regulates living. What's enshrined in your heart?
