Steven Bartlett, hot air or great brandmaker?


 Check it out on Business Cloud 


He's either a fraud or he's something that's been around a long time .

A kind of catalyst come exhorter  come Zig Ziglar type .


BBC Radio 4 did a programme on the Cambridge Rowing Team . The investigation  was an experiment . Out of a choice of rowers,who would do better ?


A full team of the fastest Diva personality rowers or to have one medium ability rower who was a people person ? A person who could galvanise, and unify ?


Yup .......the one with a Stephen Bartlett type of role .


In Paul's 3 lists of ministries is the Exhorter .

They lift faith . They create faith . They are upbeat . They find solutions . They galvanise a group by hope and love and clarity of goals .


You can't really quantify what they are doing , but it's real , because the results in business made Zig Ziglar a perennial at sales summits .

And he was paid well .

But he was a Christian and absolutely upfront about that . He was the first person that made me realise  Christianity was unashamedly an asset to productivity and having businesses that work . Unlike Britain who famously " don't do God " , this was fabulous news .
