Episode 1
The Reluctant Leader: Gideon Shows us How Great Leaders Emerge
In this episode, Colby Swann uses Gideon (Judges 6–7) as a leadership case study on growing ordinary people into extraordinary leaders. Learn how to spot the “reluctant leader,” give real opportunities, back them publicly, and provide a simple plan and tools—then step back so they can own execution and grow.
