The Bible on Leadership: From Moses to Matthew - Management Lessons for Contemporary Leaders
By: Lorin Woolfe
Millions have been inspired by the Bible's spiritual lessons. Now, Lorin Woolfe provides a unique way to view the Bible . . . for
leadership lessons that can be applied to our modern business world.
Consider David's courage and innovation in slaying Goliath with just a stone and a sling; Moses' outstanding "succession planning" in picking Joshua;
Joseph and the political skills that brought him to the seat of power; and of course, Jesus' compassion, communication skills, and vision that launched
Christianity (a long-term success by any measure).
These are leaders among leaders. Their achievements — and their inspired methods of achievement — offer a wholly different perspective on business
leadership. For the dozens of Biblical stories presented, the book provides:
* A concise retelling of each story
* One (or more) leadership lessons suggested by each story
* Examples of contemporary business leaders who exhibit some of the inspired traits of these ancient leaders, including: Fred Smith of FedEx, Howard
Shultz of Starbucks, Tom Chappell of Tom's of Maine (a "toothpaste with a mission"), Roy Vagelos of Merck, and many more.
The chapters cover these universal topics: Courage * Purpose * Communication * Honesty and Integrity * Power and Influence * Performance
Management * Team Building * Humility * Compassion * Justice * Encouragement and Consequences * Wisdom * Creating the Future
Each topic concludes with a list of key points to keep in mind as readers continue on their own leadership journeys.
