Leader’s Edge (Leadership)
Cultural Insights for Christian Leaders: New Directions for Organizations Serving God’s Mission
Douglas McConnell
Baker Academic, 2018, 224 pages
Summary
Doug McConnell has been a field missionary, a missions educator and administrator (architecting a global leadership degree), as well as an international director for a major mission agency. In this book, he unpacks the theological and philosophical underpinnings for leading with cross-cultural dynamics as his primary lens. Heavy with citations, this is a reader of sorts for the cross-cultural leader with an emphasis on cognitive anthropology. McConnell highlights leadership theories but the emphasis of culture is stronger. The text is punctuated with real life experiences and case studies.
