## Resource

Your team is becoming whatever your decisions repeatedly produce. Not your best Sundays, your most consistent choices . Worship leadership doesn't happen when you stand up front. It happens Monday through Saturday , in five decisions you're making every week whether you realize it or not. Keith walks through all five: what winning looks like, who you develo p, what gets celebrated , what gets corrected , and what gets reinforced . You'll hear why the biggest problem in most worship ministries isn't talent , it's a lack of top down clarity. Why unspoken expectations become resentment. And how to approach the team member who keeps showing up late without losing them, because kindness isn't avoiding hard conversations, it's having them early. Keith Elgin hosts the Worship Online Podcast and spends much of his week coaching worship leaders and churches on team strategy one on one. If this episode named a decision you've been avoiding, Worship Online helps you build the system side of it: 800+ song tutorials so your team shows up prepared, and Lab+ when you're ready to grow as a leader.
