Lead Like Jesus offers a leadership perspective that is radically different than what you’ve been doing. It has stood the test of time – 2000 years is a good track record! Leadership is about influence - influence that focuses on the thinking, behavior and development of others. This six week study will help you grow in your leadership as you learn to model the leadership style of Jesus of Nazareth. Jesus took a ragtag group of disciples and grew them into a radical force that continues to change and challenge the way we do life and work. They were so convinced of the method and the message that they were willing to give everything to see it accomplished. You will look at the Heart, Head, Hands and Habits of leadership as modeled by Jesus and to begin the process of incorporating them into your life and the lives of those at your work, home or church. Each unit provides key learning from Lead Like Jesus: Lessons from the Greatest Leadership Role Model of All Time, memory verses, prayers, activities and opportunities for you to write your own plan. Join the Leadership Revolution! Be different today to make a difference in your life and the lives of those you touch. Change the world – one life at a time.
