Since you don’t expect others to be responsible for your self-esteem at Level 4, the idea that you might be responsible for someone else’s self-esteem seldom crosses your mind. People who report to Level 4 leaders frequently complain that they don’t receive positive feedback, only criticism. Level 4 leaders need to recognize that those who look to them for leadership may be so tied to (and defined by) the goal or initiative that they might take any sort of criticism (even about the goal or initiative) personally.

We were talking about the declining church attendance in England and the United States, among young people especially. Brian shared that unless we’re having an encounter with God at church, there isn’t a compelling reason for young people—or anyone—to go. At the time, I had been largely equating Christianity with social justice and believing that such a connection would appeal to my students. But starting with Brian’s comment, I increasingly began to wonder if the opposite might be happening, that replacing God with social justice was actually contributing to the decline of faith among my students.
