Is it possible that the division between the clergy and the laity is unnecessary and, in fact, harmful to the church? In Organic Leadership, Neil Cole fervently says yes and shows how this causes great harm to all. But rather than doing away with the clergy, Cole argues that the answer is to raise up organically grown leaders from ordinary Christians and make everyone "a priest." Using examples from modern cinema, personal experience, and the Bible, Cole sets out to change our view of what a leader is and how one is formed. This fresh and revolutionary alternative will transform readers and equip them to challenge themselves and others to find the vision God has for them. Now available in trade paper.

A leader's journey is one of constant movement, growth and willingness to lead a team. It is also the inevitable difficulties that must be overcome in order to rise to a new stage of development. Ekaterina Irtikeeva, a professional leader with more than 25 years of management experience, who has led projects of state importance, has created a theory on how to make the process of becoming a leader organic, relying on yourself and also taking into account your strengths and weaknesses. In this book, you will learn: - why it's important to find your own leadership style and how to do it in good and challenging times; - how to develop authority and be able to shape your own rider as a manager; - how to consciously undergo an internal transformation and complication of the logic of thinking of a leader; - why organic development of the leader contributes to large-scale changes in the team and the company. You will also discover a set of tools for building developing relationships with colleagues, friends and family members. And most importantly, with yourself. Because, strange as it may seem, these relationships are the key answers to managerial questions.
