#476: Peter Hiskey — You Can’t Develop Leaders If You’ve Stopped Developing Yourself

You want to develop better leaders. But are you still developing yourself? In this episode, Tony sits down with Peter Hiskey for an in-person conversation about developing leaders, remaining a lifelong learner, discerning God’s call, and continuing to grow in every season of life. Peter has spent decades discipling and developing people in the world of professional golf, carrying forward a ministry that began when his father started gathering PGA Tour players for Bible study more than 60 years ago. His approach to developing leaders starts with something simple: never stop being a learner yourself. Tony and Peter also explore the major transitions that have shaped Peter’s life—from leaving a successful 25-year career with Ping to following God into ministry, to building The Saltire House at St. Andrews, to climbing Kilimanjaro, to taking on one of his biggest assignments at an age when many people are thinking about retirement. Through it all, Peter has learned to keep asking where God is leading, stay aligned with his wife, and remain willing to move when the answer comes. In this episode, you’ll discover: Why developing other leaders starts with continuing to develop yourself. How to recognize when someone is ready to lead and learn on their own. Why lifelong learners make better disciplemakers and leaders. How Peter discerned it was time to leave a successful 25-year career. The rhythms Peter and his wife have used for 40 years to stay aligned. Why your calling may require you to surrender your timeline and expectations. What climbing Kilimanjaro taught Peter about faith, fear, and letting go. Why retirement can be less about what you’re leaving and more about what you’re moving toward. How to identify the work you may be uniquely called and equipped to do. Coaching Question If you want the people you lead to keep growing, where do you need to become a learner again?
