"Where there is no vision, the people perish: But happy is he who keeps the law." Proverbs 29:18 Visionary Leadership is a call to dream big. Today's Bible verse is a profound truth that reminds us of the vital importance of having a clear and compelling vision for our businesses, ministries, families, and lives. As leaders, we are called not only to see what lies ahead but also to inspire others to embark on this journey with us. Reflect on your own vision: What do you see for your business? What dreams stir your heart? Consider the transformative leadership of Steve Jobs, who returned to Apple Inc. in 1997 when the company was floundering. Through his unwavering vision, he redefined not just a brand but an entire industry. His belief in innovation and design brought forth iconic products that changed how we interact with technology. Let his story be a reminder that visionary leadership can turn challenges into opportunities and can inspire a collective pursuit of greatness. 1 Corinthians 3:10 says, "According to the grace of God given to me, like a skilled master builder I laid a foundation, and someone else is building upon it. Let each one take care how he builds upon it." As you nurture your vision, remember, "A visionary leader doesn't just see the future; they inspire others to share in that vision.” The ability to communicate your aspirations clearly is crucial; it invites others to join you on this exciting journey. Your passion can ignite enthusiasm, creating a shared dream that unites your team and stakeholders. In these moments of reflection, take heart from the words of Jesus, who envisioned a world transformed by love and compassion far beyond his time. Embrace the belief that your vision can also transcend the present, impacting lives in ways you may never fully comprehend. Be bold in your aspirations, knowing that you are not alone—God walks with you on this path. Amen. Philippians 2:3-4 says, "Do nothing from selfish ambition or conceit, but in humility count others more significant than yourselves. Let each of you look not only to his own interests, but also to the interests of others." Amen Prayer for the DayHeavenly Father, we thank You for the gift of vision and purpose in our lives and businesses. Guide us as we seek to lead with clarity and inspire those around us. Help us to craft a future that reflects your love and wisdom, transforming lives and communities along the way. May our visions align with your divine plan. In Jesus' name, we pray, Amen.

Here's our 2024 Top 5 Award Winners. 2024 was an eventful year! Related Links: https://talkingtaiwan.com/talking-taiwan-2024-top-5-award-winners-end-of-year-end-of-year-review-ep-302/ In January we headed to Taiwan to cover the Presidential election, thanks to the generous support of donors. While we were there, we covered the election from Taipei, Taichung and Kaohsiung. We were also able to hold two in-person podcast events where we met several of our Taiwan-based podcast guests in person for the very first time. In May we were shortlisted in the International Women's Podcast Awards Moment of Visionary Leadership category. Then in July we brought Talking Taiwan to the 53rd annual Taiwanese American Conference East Coast (TAC-EC) where we created an on-location podcast studio and conducted 12 interviews in 3 days. We are grateful to have interviewed many of TAC-EC's wonderful speakers. And it we had the honor of interviewing Taiwan's former Vice President Dr. Chen Chien-jen (陳建仁) who is best known for his excellent handling of the COVID pandemic in Taiwan. After speaking with him I came away thinking that the world would be a much better place if we had more politicians like Dr. Chen. We'll be giving first listening access to this and other select interviews to anyone donating $50 or more to Talking Taiwan. We never know what episodes are going to make the top 5 of the year and in this episode you'll hear the story behind number 1 episode of 2024. 2024 marked a big change in the way we do things. Previously nearly all of our interviews were done remotely, but in 2024, we did a number of interviews in person, most notably the one with Dr. Linda Gail Arrigo that got shortlisted in the International Women's Podcast Awards Moment of Visionary Leadership category. We will be incorporating more in person interviews in 2025, and Talking Taiwan will be embarking on a North American Tour taking the podcast to communities on the East Coast, West Coast and Canada. In July we will be returning to the Taiwanese American Conference East Coast, and then heading to the Taiwanese American Conference on the West Coast in San Francisco. Later on in the year we will also head north to Taiwanfest in Toronto, Canada. Your donation can help make all of this happen. Right now It's a great time to make a contribution because all contributions made will be doubled. The first $11k we raise will be doubled thanks to our generous matching donors. To support Talking Taiwan you can make donation by PayPal or Zelle using our email address talkingtaiwanpodcast@gmail.com or Venmo @talkingtaiwan. You can also send us a check at our PO box that you'll find on our website talkingtaiwan.com/support. Thank you for listening. Wishing you a Happy New Year in 2025 and beyond!
