Infos

This edited collection examines the mind of leaders throughout the Bible to understand how thoughts and behaviors can support or sabotage leadership efforts. It is divided into three parts: the first part addresses thinking, influence, and communicating through the theoretical lenses of humility, metacognition, and personal well-being. Part Two addresses managing, motivating, and change through the theoretical lenses of leader-follower relationships and Lewin's change model. Finally, Part Three addresses ethics, service, and character through the theoretical lenses of participative leadership, inclusivity, resilience, and mentoring. Each chapter uses a biblical example to demonstrate the role of the mind in the effectiveness of different leaders. This volume will serve as a valuable resource to researchers interested in leadership studies, particularly those examining the biblical perspective.
