Behind many of the challenges facing us today is a failure of leadership. This is not a new problem. Yearning for wise guidance and effective authority is a perennial human longing. We need leaders who are credible, competent and committed. But many leaders seem to be caught up, even consumed, with their own power and agendas. Some see the leadership crisis as an intellectual problem, believing we lack a clear theory of leadership. Others view the breakdown of leadership as a result of increasing deficiency in moral character. Most leadership books today revolve around the concepts of motivation, inspiration, empowerment, and teamwork. Helpful as these themes might be, they miss something more fundamental. Leadership needs a theological foundation, that will be useful for shaping the undergirding principles, and evaluating current leadership theories and practices. We need to view leadership from the vantage point of God. In Rooted Leadership, John E. Johnson explores how Christian theology provides an overarching leadership framework and applies that theory to leadership practices. Spiritual reflection, guided by scripture, points us to the very center of leadership--God--and the purpose of leadership--that we might display his glory. All the best forms of leading take their cues from who God is, his purposes, and his ways of working with people that he has progressively revealed. Building on three decades of research, study, and experience as a global leader, Johnson surveys the landscape of contemporary leadership theory, unpacks the assumptions and beliefs that underly current trends, and responds by offering a robust approach to leadership, founded on the character, work, and words of God.

A provocative, personal approach to leadership based on in-depth research with hundreds of executives around the world Confronted by disruptive change and economic turbulence, many of today's leaders find themselves ill-equipped to manage the hazards they now face. They must contend with chronic uncertainty, cynical employees, and personal burnout. Most are poorly served by the prevailing paradigm that obsessively focuses on what we do to produce short-term results while sabotaging who we are as healthy human beings. Few have seen alternatives, until now. Grounded proposes a new approach that's designed for actual humans who must grapple with these forces. This new paradigm speaks to our better selves. Based on the author's Healthy Leader model, it focuses on the six personal dimensions that fuel—and refuel—the world's top leaders: physical, emotional, intellectual, social, vocational, and spiritual health. The book argues that leaders at every level can be more self-aware, develop their untapped potential, and drive significantly better results—for themselves, their teams, and their organizations. Shows readers how to build a personal leadership model that works with their values, goals and capabilities Features fresh stories from leaders in a variety of organizations including the New York Fire Department, PricewaterhouseCoopers, The Lego Group, and Medstar Health Gives leaders practical tools to face their toughest challenges with greater skill, confidence, and impact By developing themselves and mastering the six dimensions, readers can gain the stamina and strength to not only weather tough times but to achieve much, much more.

Developing as a more inspiring leader starts from the inside out. If you want to improve your career, job, family, team, company, or community, the improvement must first "take root" in your leadership behaviors. Our world is in dire need of inspiring leaders who by their example of integrity, courage, and heart-driven purpose, cultivate the ground where dreams can sprout and grow. Your ability to turn dreams into reality is the ultimate leadership effectiveness measure. Leading requires people to be engaged, influenced, and inspired - not directed and controlled. The ability to inspire is now a must-have competency for all leaders. As a leader, you must be collaborative and decisive; strong and humble; a listener and an advocate. Being the real deal means you inspire others by courageously living the values of integrity, humility, and caring for others in your daily leadership behaviors. We inspire by "Being" a leader who by example calls up the best in others. As a pioneer in leadership coaching, Dr. Vicky Gordon has spent the last 40 years helping thousands of individuals build their leadership capabilities. In this book, Vicky weaves together her real-life leadership coaching stories, leadership research, and personal leadership journey from the tobacco fields of North Carolina to the ivory towers of academia to office cubicles and boardrooms to founding her firm. Her practical coaching paints a portrait of inspiring leadership. Inspiration is in short supply. Leadership standards and trust in leaders are at an all-time low. Cynicism, conspiracy theories, and lying are at an all-time high. Can we make a leader's integrity and honesty an absolute minimum requirement? Can we hope again? Can we dream again? Can we be inspired and inspiring to others again? We can and we must! Gordon writes, "What do inspiring leaders have in common? They embody their values while leading transformations. Visible leadership behaviors rooted in integrity, passionate purpose, courage, humility, trust, respect, learning, and compassion are inspiring. Never doubt you are powerful. Just as a single acorn can grow into a mighty oak tree, we each have the potential within us to grow into more inspiring leaders rooted in integrity. Inspiring leaders create hope-filled environments where they build a better world for all by Being The Real Deal." Whether you are a front-line supervisor or a CEO, this book is for anyone who wants to be a more inspiring leader, mentor, or coach. Being The Real Deal provides a down-to-earth guide to developing yourself as a more inspiring leader.

With so many injustices, small and great, across the world and right at our doorstep, what are people of faith to do? Since the 1930s, organizing movements for social justice in the U.S. have largely been built on assumptions that are secular origin—such as reliance on self-interest and having a common enemy as a motivator for change. But what if Christians were to shape their organizing around the implications of the truth that God is real and Jesus is risen? Alexia Salvatierra has developed a model of social action that is rooted in the values and convictions born of faith. Together with theologian Peter Heltzel, this model of "faith-rooted organizing" offers a path to meaningful social change that takes seriously the command to love God and to love our neighbor as ourself.

What does it mean to be church today? As changes in demographics, participation, and leadership continue to roil faith communities in the Western world, questions about the historic roots of church communities have become all the more important. Scholarly investigations of the historical texture of early Christian communities continue to advance our understanding, but are often too technical for non-experts for whom the questions may be more keenly felt. Troy M. Troftgruben provides an accessible, succinct survey of what we now know about the roots of Christian community, taking an "ancient-future" approach by engaging contemporary questions through classical sources. Rooted and Renewing turns to historical-critical and social-scientific studies to portray everyday realities in the earliest communities, especially the Pauline assemblies. Aimed at church members and leaders alike, the book encourages reflection on the church's past so as to explore how Christians are called to be the church in today's world.

This book brings the best of leadership theory and research together with biblical reflection and examples of leadership in action to offer a practical guide to Christian leaders. Combining expertise in leadership studies and biblical studies, Justin Irving and Mark Strauss explore how leadership models have moved from autocratic and paternalistic leader-centered models toward an increased focus on followers. The authors show how contemporary theories such as transformational leadership, authentic leadership, and servant leadership take an important step toward prioritizing and empowering followers who work with leaders to accomplish organizational goals. Irving and Strauss organize their book around "nine empowering practices," making it accessible to students, church leaders, and business leaders. Integrating solid research in leadership studies with biblical and theological reflection on the leadership ideas that are most compatible with Christian faith, this book is an important resource for all Christian students of leadership.
