Are you ready to stop managing and start leading? Do you want more energetic, inspired followers? Is it time to rediscover your passion for leadership? In Shepherd Leadership, author Jamie Swalm gives you powerful leadership principles from arguably the most successful leader in human history. Religious beliefs aside, Jesus' achievements are astonishing: 2,000 years after launching his movement, 2.4 billion people claim to follow him, which makes his organization, the Christian church, the most popular in the world by far.What Jesus accomplished-is accomplishing, for there is no past tense here-is alive and breathing, it's established on every continent and still growing, 67 generations after his time on earth. How? As Jamie explores Jesus' unique leadership style, he hones in on a metaphor Jesus often used: the leader as shepherd. What he finds within this curious idea is a framework for leadership we desperately need- it's timeless, effective, balanced, moral, fulfilling, and bold. Yet it's largely been underdeveloped and underused. Jamie challenges anyone-regardless of their faith perspective-to consider the power of Shepherd Leadership. He outlines dozens of action steps you can take to move beyond theory and put Shepherd Leadership into practice in your organization today. Inspire your followers, infuse your organization with purpose, and learn to lead like Jesus.
