Lead Like Jesus
by Ken Blanchard and Phil Hodges
Blanchard brings his management expertise to the model of servant leadership in the gospels: heart, head, hands and habits, the EGO problem (edging God out), and practical leadership behaviors. It is explicitly Christian and practical, and its servant-leadership content is sound regardless of faith.
Read it if…
you are a Christian leader who wants to integrate faith and management practice.
Skip it if…
you are not religious; see Blanchard's secular books.
Three things you will actually use
- Leadership begins in the heart; motive matters.
- Serve first; authority follows.
- Habits of solitude and prayer sustain the leader.
Do this first
Ask your team what they need from you to succeed, and provide it.
Our verdict
Practical servant leadership.
