Abstract

How can leaders live their Christian values in a world which is changing at an ever faster pace and getting more complex every day ? In this volume, more than a dozen authors from Africa and Europe present the topic of Christian leadership either from a theoretical perspective - introducing new approaches, reflecting on biblical examples, giving frameworks for evaluation - or through case studies presenting and evaluating practical aspects of Christian leadership in a variety of cultural and organizational settings. Leadership scholars and Christian leaders who do not want to follow the latest fad in leadership studies, but who want to critically reflect on their own perspectives and approaches to leadership will find a wealth of inspiring and challenging thoughts in this volume.

Abstract

What is it about leadership that makes being a moral leader such a challenge? Why do leaders typically make the same mistakes over and over again, throughout history, across cultures and over time? How do expectations of heroic leadership impact a leader's moral integrity? How do followers contribute to (or undermine) a robust ethical stance of their leaders? This volume addresses these and other questions from a variety of interdisciplinary, practitioner and faith perspectives. It contains, for example, a historical account of leadership challenges, an engagement with the responsibility ethics of Dietrich Bonhoeffer, and a contextual study of the specific challenges of ethical leadership in Russia. This second volume of the series Christian Perspectives on Leadership and Social Ethics, published by the Institute of Leadership and Ethics, of the Evangelische Theologische Faculteit in Leuven (Belgium), serves leaders to face an increasingly complex reality.
