His book points us towards pathways for sharing our stories, making meaning from that shared telling, and discerning from that the signs of God's redemptive actions. -- Elaine Graham Praise for 'Leading by Story': This absorbing book sets out to bring the category of story into the centre of debates about church leadership. The authors succeed admirably in this with a study that is lucid, persuasive and enjoyable. If people follow stories rather than leaders, here is a rich story well worth pursuing. -- John Pritchard, former Bishop of Oxford Against the current trend of lionizing heroic leadership, the authors have sought to offer a view of gentler, more collective account of leadership built around stories that explore, evolve, unite and inspire. They have succeeded brilliantly. The book, full of rich stories from the authors' own experiences, will also delight and inspire every scholar and practitioner who loves organizational storytelling and stories in general. -- Yiannis Gabriel, Chair in Organisation Studies in the School of Management, University of Bath This is a fresh look at leadership, challenging old models of heroic individualistic approaches and advocating forward looking collaborative leadership. It's inspired by stories which aid decision making! -- Caroline Spelman, MP, Second Church Estates Commissioner Author InformationRev Dr Vaughan S. Roberts writes and speaks widely on organisational theory, leadership and the church. He is the co-author of 'Leading by Story' Tab Content 6Author Website:Countries AvailableAll regions |
