"Only by making ourselves, our practices, and our institutions love in this particular way can we remake and redesign unjust systems. Doing so requires that we choose love over convenience, power, or the status quo, over comfort, contentment, rules, and social acceptance. To choose love means we must go against our dominant professional training when it reproduces the oppressive systems we operate under today by prioritizing personal and institutional survival, power, and profit over the flourishing of all people. It means we stop causing harm and acknowledge and repair it when we do. Leaders across all sectors must ask themselves: Are we acting in line with our calling to serve all people, especially those who face the burden of structural oppression? Are we doing our generational work to be the next founders of this nation? What risks have we not yet taken to be part of its transformation, and to uplift all people?" #equityactionde #vitalconditions #netde Healthy Communities Delaware

Church leadership differs from the corporate world. Staff are typically vastly underpaid. And volunteers are, well, volunteering. Both staff and volunteers are motivated by their faith and purpose, not just a paycheck. This adds layers of complexity to #accountability: 1. Volunteers aren’t employees. They give their time freely, so how do you hold them to high standards without alienating them? 3. Staff are often friends. You’ve likely built strong relationships with your team, and calling someone out can feel like jeopardizing that connection. 3. The church culture values grace. Many leaders fear that accountability might be seen as harsh or unloving. These realities make it tempting to sidestep tough conversations or lower expectations. But avoiding accountability doesn’t honor your team, your calling, or your church's mission.

🌟 Embracing Positive Leadership for a Brighter Future 🌟 In a world craving fresh perspectives and enthusiastic dedication, I believe it's time for a new generation of leadership to step forward. With a passion for positivity and a readiness to tackle challenges head-on, my mayoral campaign is built on these principals. Campaigning isn't just about vying for a seat—it's a beautiful, labor-intensive journey filled with highs and lows, enriching experiences, and opportunities for growth. I approach this endeavor with an intellectual curiosity to learn, coupled with the humility to acknowledge that no one has all the answers. However, I am determined to equip myself with the knowledge needed to serve our community effectively. My vision for leadership is rooted in positivity and inclusivity. I am committed to keeping my campaign focused on what I plan to achieve, rather than criticizing others. It's imperative that we set an example for our children and community by demonstrating unwavering enthusiasm and support for our city. My children deserve to see that true leadership is about empowering others and creating a thriving environment for all. Bringing others alongside you is what it’s all about. As a mayor, I see myself as the cheerleader for our community, building strong relationships and partnerships that will foster a bright future filled with endless opportunities. Together, let's embrace positivity, drive, and a shared commitment to building a stronger, more vibrant community. Join me in this journey towards a brighter future for the city of Lone Tree! Vote Marissa for Mayor May 7 by 7 PM! #PositiveLeadership #CommunityBuilding #BrighterFuture
