In an environment where leaders are rewarded for drive, decisiveness, and productivity, spiritual well-being may get short shrift, harming both the leader and the organization the individual serves. Challenging the assumptions that effective leaders must sell their souls, cut corners, cook the books, or let go of their visions, Benefiel gives us a new model of effective, workable leadership. Drawing from interviews with outstanding leaders—including Tom and Kate Chappell, the founders of Tom’s of Maine; Bob Glassman, co-chairman of Wainwright Bank & Trust; Desmond Tutu; and The Edge of rock band U2—and supported with questions for reflection in each section, this resource points towards the principles and tools desperately needed by the leaders of today. Executives, teachers, parents, committee chairs—whether your service is in an expansive or intimate sphere of life—can benefit from this book’s sound strategies for navigating a fulfilling path of leadership.
