Book Description
What makes one a great leader? Is it being charismatic, confident and having high emotional intelligence? Is it being able to reach out to people you lead, as well as transform their lives? Is it being able to delegate functions effectively? While all the above are some aspects that make someone a great leader, when it comes to spiritual leadership, being a leader is much more than just being charismatic and being able to influence and transform. Furthermore, with the world becoming wicked, as leaders, we may feel that we need to change the standards of God to conform to what is around us. The truth is that the word of God never changes and as Christians, if we want to live a holy life that is pleasing to God, we need to remain true to his word. Furthermore, as a leader in the church, you don't take your examples from worldly leaders but rather from the great example of Jesus Christ. How then do you lead, as Christ led? This book, "Spiritual Leadership" will teach you how to be a great leader and above all an amazing Christian by following some basic foundational principles. Here is what you will learn: Why you need to arm yourself with the word of God and be ready to suffer and be obedient even in the suffering The importance of humility as a Christian leader How to embrace humility How, as a Christian, you are to provide solutions to the people in need around you An understanding of how church leaders are at greater risk To understand that the devil will try to destroy a ministry from inside and what you need to do to deal with this The need to focus on building the community and not just the Church How and why having a vision is important in leadership How we need to seek the father in spirit and in truth The importance of co-operation and collaboration with the Holy spirit and those in leadership Some hindrances that may prevent us from moving in the fullness of a prophetic ministry How to remove torment from ministry And so much more The book breaks down the seemingly complex topic using beginner friendly language to help you to start applying what you learn right away!

Book Description
This book seeks to promote a new spiritual approach to organizational leadership that goes beyond visionary management to a new focus on the spiritual for both leader and led. Reflecting on the current crisis of meaning in America, this book takes up the search for significance in peoples' worklives—in the products they produce and in the services they offer. Recognizing that the new corporation has become the dominant community for many— commanding most of our waking hours by providing a focus for life, a measure of personal success, and a network of personal relationships—Fairholm calls on business leaders to focus their attention on the processes of community among their stakeholders: wholeness, integrity, stewardship, and morality. Spiritual leadership is seen here as a dynamic, interactive process. Successful leadership in the new American workplace, therefore, is dependent on a recognition that leadership is a relationship, not a skill or a personal attribute. Leaders are leaders only as far as they develop relationships with their followers, relationships that help all concerned to achieve their spiritual, as well as economic and social, fulfillment.

Through an analysis of historical examples and contemporary issues, this book celebrates the many gifted and enlightened individuals whose leadership embodies the most exquisite qualities of humanity.
