The Hero Head or Pastor

I once heard someone say that they thought church leaders had a lot to learn from excellent school leaders.

Today I was involved in a discussion of the Hero Headteacher. On this old model, it is said, the head was the best at everything, challenged and solved everything etc.

It was argued that today the head needs to make sure they're not the hero! They need to surround themselves with good people who are great at some things - better even than they are. And they need to help and encourage and empower those people.

Now pastors could learn from that, couldn't they?
