There's a lovely phrase in 2 Cor 13 where Paul writes that authority is to be used to build up (encourage / empower) rather than to tear down others.
To me that stands in contrast to so much of what we see around us. Makes me thankful that my ultimate boss is God not man. Also challenges me whether what I say to others today will build up or tear down others.
We also start Proverbs 1 today with the reminder that the fear of the lord is the beginning of wisdom.
