The worldwide church is more interconnected than ever before, with
missionaries going from everywhere to everywhere. Africans work
with Australians in India. Koreans plant churches in London and Los
Angeles. But globalization also creates challenges for
crosscultural tension and misunderstandings, as different cultures
have conflicting assumptions about leadership values and styles.
Missiologist James E. Plueddemann presents a roadmap for
crosscultural leadership development in the global church. With
keen understanding of current research on cultural dynamics, he
integrates theology with leadership theory to apply biblical
insights to practical issues in world mission. Savvy discernment of
diverse cultural underpinnings allows multicultural teams to work
together with mutual respect for more effective ministry. The
author shows how leaders can grow from an individualistic
egocentric practice of leadership to a more global-centric
approach. The future of the global church depends on effective
multicultural leadership. God has called people from various
contexts to minister and lead in every land for the sake of the
gospel. Whether you are teaching English in China, directing
information technology in Africa or pastoring a multiethnic church
in North America, discover how you can better work and lead across
cultures.
