This course seeks to help you recover the personal spiritual element of leadership. Rather than studying the best practices and methods of exercising leadership, you will focus on the character, attitudes, and motives that set apart the kind of leader Scripture commends. You will construct a profile of the servant-leader, especially the leaders internal qualities, that you can apply to effective ministry in advancing Gods kingdom.
This course will introduce you to various approaches to effective leadership within the context of organizational chaos and complexity. You will study effective leaders who know how to influence, catalyze, and support positive changes in structure, organizational culture, and people. You will understand that organizational change efforts are the lifeblood of leadership. You will be able to consult, advise, and engage leaders throughout any organization using principles of personal and professional ethics.
This course will help you deepen your effectiveness for leading others in diverse ethnic and global ministry settings. You will lay a biblical-theological foundation for leadership that fosters ethnic and cultural integration, learn how to form multiethnic/multicultural ministry teams, and learn how to build communities that celebrate multicultural ministry. In the final project, you will reflect on how to apply principles you have learned in your current ministry context.
