The rich lessons of the Bible can be your leadership guidebook.
Successful leaders don't rely solely on natural charisma and
organizational authority as their tickets to success. Successful
leadership is a learned art form and a developed discipline. You
can master the art of leadership by examining the pitfalls and
achievements of past leaders and penetrating the stories of our
cultural and religious heritage. The Bible is the ultimate resource
for learning by example: its stories of family relationships,
political beginnings and even divine encounters provide valuable
lessons about leading effectively. In this empowering guidebook,
Nathan Laufer walks you through the stories at the very beginning
of the Bible to examine the portraits of leadership success—and
failure—they contain. He reveals the life-affirming values that
the Bible uses to measure its leaders beginning in the Garden of
Eden; analyzes the ups and downs in Abraham’s, and later
Joseph’s, leadership journeys; and scrutinizes the many
challenges faced by Moses—and God—in the books of Exodus and
Numbers. Laufer draws out from Bible stories the lessons we can use
every day—lessons not only of exemplary leadership, but also of
failing to lead, leading with no direction and leading in the wrong
direction or to a destructive destination. Through Laufer’s
interpretive lenses, these ancient stories come alive to inform and
inspire our leadership today and offer us direction for the future.
"Nathan Laufer helps us see the stories of the [Bible] in new ways,
he turns them into universal paradigms that relate to situations we
all face every day, and he distills his insights into practical and
powerful guidelines. There is no algorithm for leadership, no
cookbook recipe, but it is hard to imagine a leader at any level of
an enterprise whose capabilities will not be enhanced by studying
this book." —from the Preface by Dr. Michael Hammer
