Leadership in Principle and in Practice

In this Leadership in Principle and Practice, Stanley Maphosa tackle some basic principles of leadership and make them practical with examples from the church and the workplace. This book is for both Christian and secular leaders. From the family set up right up to the head of state, leadership has the "make or break" abilities. The bible speaks about the importance of self and family leadership before one attempt to lead the church of God. This basic requirement for leaders has been ignored and we have people who cannot lead themselves and lead or support their families fumbling to take charge of organisations or nations. These are some of the principles and practices of leadership that we have let go and they have put us where we are today-a place where there is a leadership vacuum in many circles. This book has twelve chapters that include an overview of leadership; self-leadership-leading yourself before others and taking charge of your life; the leader and corruption; mentorship and coaching in leadership; responsible leadership; when leaders lead; tests of leadership; leadership pitfalls, the isolated leader and some truths to understand when leading. The foreword in this book was written by Pastor Jeqe Ngwenya of Higher Dimension School of Life and Leadership.
