Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The call to lead and the call to holiness are profoundly intertwined. But in our world today, what does it even mean to be a leader? What does it even mean to be holy? Using the timeless and transcendent wisdom of the saints and the latest findings in business and social science, this book takes an insightful examination of the leadership principles demonstrated in the lives of the saints and their applicability to our modern everyday lives. Faced with challenges where their faith and even their lives hung in the balance, the saints responses exemplify what are authentic, effective, and inspirational models of leadership that we can use to guide us to our eternal destination. Echoing the words of Saint Francis of Assisi, Come along, Ill show you how. Let us call on Francis, Dominic, Ignatius, Francis Xavier, Therese of Lisieux, Teresa of Avila, Maximilian Kolbe, Padre Pio, Mother Teresa, Pope John Paul II, and countless others who have gone before us to be our companions and guides, illuminating the path for us as we step up to lead and move forward to journey towards Christ.

Like you, we are simplytrying to do better and be better in our service to the Kingdom ofGod.

Faithful stewards:* seek the will of Heavenly Father and share that vision with thepeople they serve.* live by every word that proceedeth from the mouth of God (D&C84:43-46).* draw strength from the grace of God and from the infinite andeternal Atonement of the Savior Jesus Christ.* measure every thought and act against the principles of righteousness.* embrace the counsel to "Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; andlean not unto thine own understanding" (Proverbs 3:5).* as always, are Spirit-directed in all things.These are not simply "nice" things to do when convenient. Theyare absolutely imperative. Effective leadership stewards work hard toperfect their own gifts and skills and they constantly acknowledge andseek inspiration from the source of their gifts and skills.
Book Synopsis 7 Leadership Lessons of D-Day by : John Antal
Download or read book 7 Leadership Lessons of D-Day written by John Antal and published by Casemate Publishers. This book was released on 2017-08-19 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Drawing universal truths from urgent battlefield crises, the author provides a terrific guide and training tool for leaders at all levels” (Ralph Peters, New York Times–bestselling author). The odds were against the Allies on June 6, 1944. The task ahead of the paratroopers who jumped over Normandy and the soldiers who waded ashore onto the beaches, all under fire, was colossal. In such circumstances, good leadership can be the deciding factor of victory or defeat. This book is about the extraordinary leadership of seven men who led American soldiers on D-Day and the days that followed. Some of them, like Eisenhower, Theodore Roosevelt Jr., and Lt. Dick Winters, are well known, while others are barely a footnote in the history books. This book is not a full history of D-Day, nor does it cover the heroic leadership shown by men in the armies of the Allies or members of the French Resistance, who also participated in the Normandy assault and battles for the lodgment areas. It is, however, a primer on how you can lead today, no matter what your occupation or role in life, by learning from the leadership of these seven figures. A critical task for every leader is to understand what leadership is. Socrates once said that you cannot understand something unless you can first define it in your own words. This book provides the reader with the means to define leadership by telling seven dramatic, immersive, and memorable stories that the reader will never forget. “Nobody tells a story better than John Antal and nobody knows better how to root out the lessons of history.” —James Jay Carafano, author of Wiki at War

Book Synopsis Leadership as an Identity by : Crawford W. Loritts
Download or read book Leadership as an Identity written by Crawford W. Loritts and published by Moody Publishers. This book was released on 2023-02-07 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ask yourself this question: What character qualities define a godly leader? The question leaves out too much. Asking only about character seems inadequate. What about personality, communication skills, IQ, education, previous experience, and more . . . right? Author Crawford Loritts answers this question with four simple words: brokenness, communion, servanthood, and obedience. These four characteristics provide the framework for Leadership as an Identity. Examining each trait, Loritts undermines the pervasive and unbiblical assumptions about leadership. Loritts imparts timely wisdom, correction, and direction. God doesn't look for leaders like the world does. He looks for disciples.
Book Synopsis From Shepherd to Ruler: Leadership Lessons Inspired by David by : Vinnie Venturella
Download or read book From Shepherd to Ruler: Leadership Lessons Inspired by David written by Vinnie Venturella and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2022-02-01 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: David is one of the most perfect characters on which to do a study of leadership. We can learn a lot from David’s life. We can learn what to do and what not to do. I think both are important. No one is perfect and learning those tough lessons on someone else’s behalf is as important as learning the more positive ones. David was God’s anointed. He started as a shepherd and through God’s leadership, he became a ruler of a nation and a shepherd over His people. David did not set out to be Israel’s king. He did not set out to ‘be a leader.’ He was thrust into circumstances not of his making. He went through his own crucible time and time again. Through each experience he put more tools in his toolbox so to speak. Although not perfect by any measure, his zeal for God and faith in God became the standard that all future kings of Israel would be measured against. We can learn a lot from current and prior leaders, regardless of where we find them. Like the cook making a stew, you choose which ingredients and how much to use, and learn what works and what doesn’t work for you along the way as you perfect your recipe.
