Osborne Larry - Lead Like A Shepherd The Secret To Leading Well - Paperback

Binding: Paperback
Description: Pastor author and leadership consultant unpacks instruction for church leaders found in 1 Peter 5:1 - 4 where they are exhorted to shepherd the flock among them. Some instruction is timeless. Regardless of the age in which we live certain instruction carries no expiration on its relevance. Pastor author and leadership consultant Larry Osborne has discovered this to be the case with instruction on how to be a good leader. The best most practical advice comes from the Bible and in particular 1 Peter 5:1 - 4. It's in this short passage where leaders are exhorted to shepherd the flock among them. Unfortunately most modern leaders have precious little experience tending sheep and many of the implications that were well understood when Peter penned these words are lost on today's reader. Osborne finds the parallels to be numerous well - worth reviewing and understanding anew. A shepherd leads them to water even when they fear it. A shepherd never allows one sick lamb to destroy the flock. A shepherd lays down his life for his sheep When leaders truly understand Peter's words of exhortation to lead like a shepherd then they will begin to see the path that leads them to Leading Well.
