The Vulnerable Leader

2/10/2025 -

Today, we welcome back Stephanie Wagner, a seasoned leader with 19 years of experience at The Boeing Company, where she currently serves as a BDS Quality Auditor. In an environment where faith and science often seem at odds, Stephanie has consistently witnessed the truth of Romans 1:20 - that God uses science, research, and creation to reveal Himself to others. Since 2016, Stephanie has lead a BBT study group at Boeing. With each job assignment change, she has started a new BBT Bible study group to provide support and accountability for herself and others. Stephanie’s leadership style is grounded in the conviction that leaders should model vulnerability and uphold a higher standard, especially when they are in positions of influence. In this episode, Stephanie shares a very personal testimony of how her faith was strengthened through the trust and support of her Bible study group. Her story is a powerful reminder of how faith, prayer, and community can help Christians in the workplace stay true to the course God has set before them.
