To Be A Great Leader, You Need To Follow Christ’s Instruction About Leadership – Mensa Otabil

Founder and General Overseer of the International Central Gospel Church (ICGC), Pastor Mensa Otabil, has stressed that true greatness in leadership comes from aligning with the principles taught by Jesus Christ.

Sharing his thoughts in a post on his Twitter (formerly X) page, Dr. Otabil wrote: “To be a great leader, you need to follow Christ’s instruction about leadership.”

His statement underscores the idea that leadership, particularly within the Christian faith, is not merely about authority, influence, or status, but about service, humility, and responsibility. By pointing to Christ’s teachings, Dr. Otabil reminds leaders that Jesus defined greatness through servanthood teaching His disciples that the greatest among them must first become a servant.

This message serves as both a challenge and a guide for leaders in all spheres, including governance, business, and ministry. It calls for a shift from self-centered leadership models to Christ-centered ones, where love, sacrifice, and stewardship are at the core.

Dr. Otabil, who is widely respected for his teachings on leadership, purpose, and personal development, has consistently emphasized that values rooted in scripture provide the foundation for sustainable and transformative leadership. His latest message is being seen as a timely reminder for leaders to anchor their leadership style in Christ’s example.
