Leadership Wisdom from Unlikey Voices People Of Yesterday Speak To Leaders Of Today

For leaders who've read every leadership book (or just feel like they have)Most leaders feel like they've read all there is to read about leadership but are still frustrated when the tools of "professionals" fail to work.Leadership Wisdom from Unlikely Voices takes leaders off the frustrating path of doing leadership and into the more meaningful place of being a leader. Rather than focusing on new tools or techniques, author Dave Fleming draws on the "voices" of contemplative thinkers and their views on issues that affect leaders today. Nouwen, Augustine, Underhill, Benedict, and others offer readers insight from outside the world of leadership on how to regain the humanity of being a leader.Each chapter includes interactive exercises that allow readers to reflect on what they're learning, evaluate ideas, and then implement those ideas that resonate most.The emergentYS line was created in response to the rising interest of church leaders and growing numbers of Christians regarding the emerging church and culture-and the profound changes the church is now facing. The emergentYS line will address the complex issues of our world's ongoing cultural shifts and the impact this will have on the local church and ministry.Fleming, Dave is the author of 'Leadership Wisdom from Unlikey Voices People Of Yesterday Speak To Leaders Of Today', published 2004 under ISBN 9780310258001 and ISBN 0310258006.
