Leadership Lessons from the Muppets

July 22nd, 2009

This has got to be one of my favorite movie scenes of all time.

It's ridiculous, really, to realize how often I think about this scene -- when I'm in the midst of everyday conversations (and particularly church leadership situations).  Something about the scene rings so true to our human nature and social dynamics... And I really think there are some valuable leadership lessons in there.  But it's just funny that it comes in the package of a film about a frog and bear helping to break a pig out of jail.

I hope you enjoy the clip as much as I do.
