📺 The Leadership Mistake That’s Costing You Results | Jesus, the Fig Tree & Real Productivity | Lead in 10 with Chris Moore
What if the thing that looks healthy in your leadership is actually what’s holding you back?
In this episode of Lead in 10, Chris Moore unpacks one of the most startling moments in Jesus’ ministry—cursing the fig tree in Mark 11—and the powerful leadership truth behind it. This isn't just about trees—it's about meetings, systems, team members, and projects that give the appearance of productivity but bear no real fruit.
You’ll learn:
Why tolerating unfruitful efforts is a leadership liability
How to inspect what you expect with courage and clarity
The difference between leafy appearance and actual fruit
Practical steps to prune what no longer serves your vision
If you're serious about leading with integrity, making tough calls, and building a business that actually gets results—this episode is your wake-up call.

🔥 Leadership Challenge:
Choose one “fig tree” in your business—maybe a habit, system, or project. Ask: What is this really producing? Is it aligned with our mission? Be honest. Then take action: adjust it, prune it, or remove it.
