  • servant Leader Spiritual Leader the case for convergence
    Journal of Leadership Accountability and Ethics, 2013
    Co-Authors: James A Lynch, Hershey H Friedman
    Abstract:

    One valuable idea in Leadership studies that has its roots in the Bible is that of servant Leadership (Sendjaya and Sarros, 2002). Robert K. Greenleaf first introduced this concept in an essay he wrote in 1970 (Greenleaf, 1970). The servant Leader is the antithesis of the autocratic, authoritarian, Leader who is primarily concerned with power and wealth – one who believes in “Leader first.” Servant Leaders are not concerned with personal aggrandizement and self-interest. Rather, their focus is on others: they care about people, empower others and are facilitators, and want all of their subordinates to be successful (Greenleaf, 1978; Greenleaf, 1977). Barbuto and Wheeler (2006) developed a scale to measure the construct of servant Leadership and found “strong relationships with positive outcomes such as employees’ extra effort, employees’ satisfaction, and perceptions of organizational effectiveness.” Van Dierendonck and Nuijten (2010) also developed an instrument to measure servant Leadership. Hayden (2011) found that servant Leadership did have positive effects on followers. The strongest effect found by Hayden was on health. Organizations headed by servant Leaders will create an environment where followers feel and, indeed, are healthier. Spears (2004) found ten characteristics in the servant Leader:

  • servant Leader Spiritual Leader the case for convergence
    Social Science Research Network, 2013
    Co-Authors: James A Lynch, Hershey H Friedman
    Abstract:

    The authors show how the concept of servant Leadership can be enhanced by combining it with Spiritual Leadership. In fact, a true servant Leader should also be a Spiritual Leader. The authors demonstrate that one of the earliest servant Leaders, Moses, was also a Spiritual Leader. Abraham Lincoln is also used as an example.

  • pth 901 renewing the Spiritual Leader
    2011
    Co-Authors: Roger Heuser
    Abstract:

    Frustration and disappointment should not dissuade us from asking of ourselves and of Leaders in every institution to be persons of deep Spirituality, integrity, competence, and vision. The study of Leadership with an effort to influence best practices begins in the interior life of the Leader. The muchneeded transformational change in an organization will more likely occur when it is accompanied by deep change within the Leader. Playwright, dissident, prisoner, and past president of the Czech Republic, Vaclav Havel, addressed the U.S. Congress in 1990, a few months after the country freed itself from communist rule: The specific experience I’m talking about has given me one certainty: consciousness precedes being, and not the other way around!. For this reason, the salvation of this human world lies nowhere else than in the human heart, in the human power to reflect, in human meekness and in human responsibility. Without a global revolution in the sphere of human consciousness, nothing will change for the better in the sphere of our being as humans, and the catastrophe toward which this world is headed ‐ be it ecological, social, demographic or a general breakdown of civilization ‐ will be unavoidable. 2 The church’s engagement in this conversation potentially offers a clear and compelling voice that is challenging as it is hopeful. The conversation is enriched with music, poetry, and the arts ‐ crucial for today as they were in the Psalms and prophetic traditions, challenging the status quo, expressing lament, and comforting the people. This course explores the Leader’s interior life in order to examine how character and Spirituality enable Leaders to become more authentic in their relationships and more fruitful in purposeful ministry.

  • assemblies of god theological seminary doctor of ministry pth 901 renewing the Spiritual Leader
    2001
    Co-Authors: Roger Heuser, Edgar Lee
    Abstract:

    COURSE DESCRIPTION Models of renewal are considered in view of each participant’s own Spiritual and Leadership development. The experience is enriched through reading and reflection, peer interaction, and faculty mentoring. Foundational to any study of Leadership is learning the richness of the interior life that focuses upon one’s own calling, mission, vision, Spirituality and discernment. At the very core of our inner life lies buried what we often most strenuously avoid, though it is also the core of us that we long to nurture and sustain. Our habit for ignoring the interior life, according to Michael E. Cavanagh “is analogous to ambulance driver[s] ignoring and mistreating the engine of [their] ambulance, even though [they do] so because [they are] busy transporting people to the hospital. Sooner or later, the ambulance is likely to run out of gas or fail mechanically and threaten the safety of the very people the driver is trying to help.” 1
