Top 5 Insights from Pete Burak

• Spirit-filled leadership begins with personal discipleship and flows outward—authentic leaders are formed in Christ and empowered by the Holy Spirit to replicate this transformation in others.

• Humility and obedience are foundational for leadership; true leaders have first learned to follow before inspiring others to move from where they are to where God is calling.

• Magnanimous vision—seeing and pursuing a “big God” mission—comes alive not just in public figures, but also in ordinary lives lived faithfully and well for the Kingdom.

• Impactful leadership often happens in hidden places: raising families, influencing local communities, and quietly serving—these leaders are building the Church just as much as high-profile ministers.

• Expectant listening to God isn’t a buzzword for Pete—it’s a way of life and a core value in organizational leadership, prayerfully pausing to seek and act on God’s direction at every level.
