Book Description
Every story needs a lead character, a ship needs a captain, and an arrow needs a target. The Christian's lead, captain, and target is Jesus-the Son of God. Two thousand years after His death, Jesus is known around the globe. In Lead Like the Lord: Lessons in Leadership from Jesus, W. Kirk Brothers shares his own personal journey with Jesus that led him to the conviction that Jesus is the greatest leader to ever walk the earth. His apostles traversed the Roman Empire to tell the world about Him. Billions have been impacted by His life. Countless committed disciples have marched into the arena to face the lions in His name or have boldly proclaimed their faith in Him while bound to a stake as the flames leapt up around them. Based on years of academic study in the field of biblical leadership, as well as extensive ministry experience, Brothers sees the characteristics and habits of great leaders often promoted in contemporary books and revealed in modern research projects as qualities first demonstrated by Jesus during His earthly ministry. Lead Like the Lord challenges us to both live and guide others like Jesus. You will wrestle with what spiritual leadership is and with what leadership success looks like. Along the way, Brothers will introduce nine characteristics of leadership demonstrated by Jesus. He was centered, connected, compassionate, common, clear thinking, competent, courageous, a coach, and a person of moral character. This book is based on the conviction that if we will seek to apply these nine principles, we can have an influence on others that will impact eternity. Lead Like the Lord invites you to gather at the feet of Jesus!

Lead Like Jesus Revisited
Author: Ken Blanchard
Publisher: Thomas Nelson
ISBN: 0718084977
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 336
Book Description
"The more I read the Bible, the more evident it becomes that everything I have ever taught or written about effective leadership over the past 25 years, Jesus did to perfection. He is simply the greatest leadership role model of all time." Effective leadership—whether on the job, in the community, at church, or in the home—starts on the inside. In this revised classic, renowned leadership expert Ken Blanchard guides you through the process of discovering how to lead like Jesus. Before you can hope to lead anyone else, you must know who you are. Every leader must answer two critical questions. One deals with your relationship to Christ. The other with your life purpose. Whose are you going to be? Who are you going to be? Learning to lead like Jesus can be described as the process of aligning two internal domains (the heart and the head) and two external domains (the hands and the habits). These four dimensions of leadership form the outline for this very practical and transformational book, from which you will learn how to: Integrate your faith with your role and responsibility as a leader Identify your priorities Build your relationship with God in a new and personal way Move from success to significance Lead out of service rather than self-interest Put the love of Jesus into action With simple yet profound principles from the life of Jesus, and dozens of stories and leadership examples from his own life, Ken Blanchard once again shows us the way effective leaders lead.
