I have experienced that on a personal level within a couple of different jobs. Because of my high work standards and ethics, I've had bosses that perceived I was trying to "take their jobs". When the fact of the matter is usually that, yes, I want your job, but I want to push you on to your bosses job. My goal is never to succeed at the expense of another person. It's difficult to be in that situation, because I can't succeed in the job when the boss is threatened by me. At that point, it's time to just take my ball and go home. :-) I agree with the statemen: “If you’re insecure, assets are perceived as threats.” I have experienced that on a personal level within a couple of different jobs.

I had a conversation and prayer time with someone recently on that very topic. We are somehow afraid of others being "greater" than us by releasing them in our ministries or that somehow we won't be "the best" we can be if someone else is better! It's a scary thought process to follow. But when we flush it out and find our true identity and strength in God.....our ministries and others will flourish the way God intended them to be, and that has to be beyond our own strengths and capabilities. so true Paul!
