Beschreibung

LEADING FROM THE SECOND CHAIR will raise awareness of the need forstrong leaders in secondary positions. It will describe the valuethey can bring to their organization and to primary leaders whenthey are serving at their full potential. It will reshape the waythey view their role, with an emphasis on their own responsibilityas leaders. It recognizes the unique challenges and frustrations ofserving in a subordinate position and equips these leaders with theattitudes and skills that they will need to survive and thrive inthis new paradigm. Because of the scarcity of resources for second chair leaders,particularly those in the church, this book will offer a practicalway to improve the performance of any organization. LeadingCongregational Change discussed the importance of a "visioncommunity"--a diverse group of key members who discern andimplement the vision for a congregation--to guide thetransformation of a church. This work will extend the theme of anempowered leadership team as we explore how individual clergy andlaity can lead effectively.
