About this book
This edited collection addresses several forms of moral leadership within the context of kenosis, bringing together both secular and biblical perspectives on the role of morality and self-sacrifice in effective leadership theory and practice. The contributors apply various leadership theories in the analysis of sacred texts in order to uncover unique insights into the biblical truth about leadership. Their analysis moves away from egotistical leadership focused on self-aggrandizement and provides a new model for leadership - one characterized by morality, authenticity, and service. True Leadership will benefit scholars, researchers, and students interested in values-based leadership and seeking to enrich their understanding of organizational behavior and leadership development.
