Leadership is both an art and a science. We may be tempted to look
for a sure-fire formula, but the reality is quite different:
effective leaders are exceptional generalists rather than narrow
specialists. The best leaders take what the best business experts
have to offer, and apply that based on their own abilities,
experience and judgment. And these leaders seek real-life mentors
and learn from them. Gayle Beebe, who has spent over a decade as a
college president, had the opportunity to study with Peter Drucker,
the father of modern management and the author of The Effective
Executive. Drawing on Drucker's influence as well as his own years
of experiences as a pastor, administrator and president, Beebe has
developed a pyramid of leadership principles. The combination of
these defines a leader of influence and integrity. In these pages
you'll also meet some of Beebe's other mentors: Steve Sample of
USC, Harold A. "Red" Poling of Ford Motor Company, Richard Foster
of Renovar?, David McKenna of Asbury Seminary and Bob Emmons of
Smart&Final. In a day of relentless self-direction, strong
leaders have a critical role. With this book you can discover what
it takes to be effective in your sphere of influence.
2010 Christianity Today Book Award winner 2010 Golden Canon
Leadership Book Award winner Think of the moment you last
experienced God. Do you know him that closely in this moment? Truly
experiencing the love of God gives us a taste of his goodness and
his love for us, but often those moments are fleeting. We get
distracted by life. Our awareness and understanding fade while our
longing to experience him that way again increases. In these pages
you can begin to fill that longing by developing your capacity to
receive and respond to God's love. Spiritual formation is the
process through which one's inner self is opened to the work of the
Holy Spirit, who forms us into the image of the Son. Here Richard
Foster and Gayle Beebe, both experienced leaders in spiritual
formation, introduce you to people from the past who have known God
deeply. Each person helps you to grasp one of the seven primary
paths to intimacy with God that have been developed throughout
Christian history. Chapters are divided into sections, each segment
surrounding a key figure and concluding with a reflection and
prayer. This rich resource can guide you into the same deep
intimacy with God, opening you to the Spirit's work of
transformation. A Renovare Resource.
