Selfless Leadership in the Salvation Army

By Jason T. Moore Maj. (Dr.)

Overview


What kind of leader does the world need in the twenty-first century? The answer varies depending on the person and the group that person belongs to. The author believes that leadership needs to be understood in a unique context. The focus of leadership should be on the group as a collective whole. The leader is only one person within the group. She or he leads others who have the same vision but may vary in understanding how to get to where everyone in the group wants to go. This book will explore the means, byproduct and ends of leadership.

Description


Leaders are only leaders if they have followers. Leaders and followers should have an idea of where they want to go and why that path is the correct one. As the master teacher and leader of Christians, Jesus Christ told His disciples that, "If the blind lead the blind, both will fall into a pit (Matthew 15:14b, NIV)." In the twenty-first century, falling into a pit is not an option for serious selfless leaders. Each have an obligation to lead with honesty and are accountable to the other members of the group. The aforementioned should always be at top of mind. The organization's sustainability efforts will be rooted in possibility because of this.
