Leadership – What is it? How do you do it? Who is a leader and who is not?
For over thirty years Walter Wright, President of Regent's College, Vancouver, has been paying close attention to the nature of leadership. He has thought, taught, prayed, conversed and read widely and deeply both inside and outside of the Bible on the whole realm of leadership. 'Relational Leadership' is the result of his education.
Drawing on leadership theory, his own experience and the biblical books of Jude, Philemon and Ephesians, Walter Wright has written a book that will be valuable to anyone in any position of leadership. The author asserts that leadership is not an assigned role, but a way of living that suffuses everything we do and are. Its goal is to empower others to contribute to achieving the mission of the organisations with which they are involved. Wright not only presents an ideal, but offers practical suggestions for handling such thorny issues as the management of volunteers and performance reviews.
This book will stimulate your thinking about leadership and management and enable you to invest yourself in the people for whose success you are responsible.
