About this listen

Leadership in Christian Perspective brings the best of leadership theory and research together with biblical reflection and examples of leadership in action. Combining expertise in leadership studies and biblical studies, Justin Irving and Mark Strauss explore how leadership models have moved from autocratic and paternalistic leader-centered models toward an increased focus on followers. They show how contemporary theories such as transformational leadership, authentic leadership, and servant leadership take an important step toward prioritizing and empowering followers who work with leaders to accomplish organizational goals. Organized around "nine empowering practices," this practical guide is accessible to all Christian students of leadership. It integrates solid research in leadership studies with biblical and theological reflection on the leadership ideas that are most compatible with Christian faith, making it an important resource for professors and students in leadership and pastoral theology courses, pastors and church leaders, and Christian business leaders.

I have valued listening to this book - it helped me consider a range of different matters and elements of leadership as a Christian, including how my faith impacts my leadership. It manages to bring both biblical studies on leadership and contemporary research and theory together in this study. Servant Leadership is at its core, although it is more than just a book on servant leadership.
It isn’t a light read and requires focus to pick out the value in it.

Valuable leadership insights both biblically and in contemporary research/theory
