Creating a Network of Allies
Wednesday, September 18, 2024
4word community, we are grateful to come to you each week with content that is helpful as you navigate the successes and challenges of life. As we continue to stay apprised of the impact of COVID-19, we want you to know that we are praying for you as you navigate each day! We are grateful during this time to be an army of intercessors praying for the physical and spiritual wellbeing of our friends, our families, and for our world. If you have specific prayer requests, please send those to Irrayna as she consolidates prayer requests for our Boards and staff to pray over each week. “Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the LORD your God will be with you wherever you go.” Joshua 1:9.
At work, you’re likely surrounded by people with tons of experience and business savvy that could truly help catapult you to your career dreams…but how do you even begin to approach the topic of getting their help? Diane Paddison, founder of 4word, shares her advice for utilizing the people in your circles and creating a network of allies.
