The Book: LeadershipAlive: Changing Leadership Practices in the Emerging 21st Century Culture.
This newly released, one-of-a-kind book on leadership and emerging culture was grounded upon doctoral research interviews with 20 national and international Christian leaders from the East Coast to the Pacific Rim.
"We are now living in the most demanding and perplexing times that leaders have ever faced. Because contemporary culture is changing, new methodology and practices are needed to better inspire, educate and train new and emerging leaders of the 21st century. Many Christian leaders need direction as to which core leadership competencies and qualities are central to their development and effectiveness in our changing postmodern world."
This book identifies the core competencies effective Christian leaders employ and explores which of the competences are catalytic in the development and future training of a new kind of leader.
