He shares leadership truths that ultimately lead to long-term employee satisfaction, retention, and organizational growth. Chuck brings home key biblical lessons you’ve heard from Bobby and shares how they have directly impacted his journey. Chuck is the definition of a servant leader and tells us about being the Church wherever you lead. Don’t miss it!
