Ranked Top 2.5% Globally Do you wish that you could lead your team in a way that honours and glorifies God? Are you struggling to overcome self-doubt as a leader and have a desire to be more confident in your role? Do you want the courage to deal with difficult people but don’t want to upset anyone? Well, you’re in the right place! On this podcast, I’ll teach you how to lead like Jesus, even if you’re not allowed to speak of your faith in your workplace. You’ll learn to become bold and confident as a leader, to speak up and say what God wants you to say and to finally know that you are worthy to be in your current role. Because God chose you, not because you are already a perfect leader, but because HE wants to mold you and use you to be an instrument in the kingdom of God. Hey, I’m Rika, and for the past 10 years, I’ve been in middle-management leadership roles, where I have led various teams, from big to small, and experienced my fair share of working with difficult people, having tough conversations, hiring and firing people and managing team dynamics. I thought that I could rely on worldly knowledge of leadership to get me through. I attended various leadership courses and listened to many leadership podcasts, but I was still struggling as a leader. I was feeling frustrated and to be honest, I was not enjoying my leadership role and felt like quitting more often than I probably should have! I finally realised that if I wanted to be the leader that I truly desired to be (which was a leader who wasn’t shy to speak up, a leader who honoured God with her actions and a leader who could build a cohesive team without the drama), I needed to partner with God and find a Christian leadership mentor to guide me and keep me accountable. I committed my leadership journey to God and partnered with HIM. I started working with a mentor and stepped out in faith as I did hard things every single day. And I can’t wait to share what I’ve learned with you! If you’re ready to lead your team in a way that honours God, I’m excited to be your mentor! So, grab your notebook and pen (and don’t forget that Chai Latte), and let’s unlock your God-given leadership potential! Next steps: Head to https://www.womenoffaithinleadership.com where you can: 1.

    Have you ever hesitated when you knew God was calling you to act? Maybe it was speaking up in a meeting, addressing a team issue, or saying “yes” to an opportunity you didn’t feel ready for.

    I’ve been there. And I know this: delayed obedience is often disobedience.

    Today, we’re going to talk about that—about obedience in leadership, and how to take three practical, biblical steps that will help you stop hesitating and start leading boldly in obedience to God.

    For many of us as female Christian leaders, being disobedient isn’t about defiance, it’s about fear.

    Fear of getting it wrong. Fear of what others will think. Fear of stepping out without knowing the full plan.

    But friend, God is not looking for perfection. He’s looking for a yes. Obedience is less about having all the answers and more about having the willingness to follow.

    In today’s episode, we’re diving into something every Christian leader needs — people skills.

    As Christian leaders, our people skills are not just practical — they’re spiritual. Jesus Himself said the greatest commandment is to love God and love people.

    Key Verse: Colossians 3:12 — “Therefore, as God’s chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience.”

    5 People Skills Every Christian Leader Needs

    *Listen to the episode to learn more*

    1. Active Listening

    2. Empathy

    3. Emotional Intelligence

    4. Clear, Grace-Filled Communication

    5. Leading with Humility

    How to Lead with People Skills — Even When It’s Hard

    When it gets hard:

    • Pray before you speak.
    • Ask the Holy Spirit for wisdom.
    • Remember that every person is made in the image of God — even the difficult ones.

    And when you get it wrong because we all do, be quick to apologize. That alone can transform a relationship.

    Reflection + Action Steps

    • Who in your life or leadership role do you need to reconnect with?
    • Where might God be calling you to communicate more clearly, or with more compassion?
    • How can you reflect Jesus in every conversation this week?
