Reviews for Hit the Ground Kneeling

[juliette07_1 · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

This short but eminently readable book is a must for all those in leadership who wish to question and challenge many of the common statements that are so often quoted in the ‘how to be a great leader’ genre. The author challenges these in the light of the Christian faith and Christian perspectives on leadership. With an engaging style Stephen Cottrell gives us food for thought and suggests alternatives with much turning upside down of taken for granted assumptions. He uses the phrase ‘upside down wisdom’ and concludes that true leadership means to serve. A thought provoking book for leaders – highly recommended.
