The discussions will focus on four major themes:•How does a leader lead?•What do good leaders look like?•What does leadership mean?•And what qualities define great leadership?Host Kenneth M. Young, Senior Pastor of Calvary Baptist Church in Haverhill, Massachusetts – knows a bit about leadership himself.
