It also seeks to establish a proper relationship between sacred and secular leadership thinking, tackling some of the common philosophical and theological reservations to do with leadership discourse, whilst offering a critical framework for discerning the suitability for the Church of different sources of leadership thinking.<br /> <br /> Designed as core reading for leadership modules currently taught by the author across a large number of training contexts in the UK, this book is an indispensable text for those taking undergraduate or postgraduate-level qualifications in Christian leadership as well as those in other less formal leadership training contexts.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"Comprehensive, Biblically rooted, and grounded in practical experience, this is a book that all Christian leaders will want to have on their shelves. It faces the leadership task with wisdom, honesty and reflection on the whole-life character of Christian leadership in a way that will inspire and challenge, whether you are just setting out as a leader or have been leading for many years." -- <em>Emma Ineson</em>, <em>Bishop of Penrith</em></p><br>
