    About this ebook

    Many of us sense a lack of confidence when it comes to leading a group of people to a different level of thinking that involves change. How will we get there? How can we entice followers to come along as we lead? For without followers, we cannot be leaders. Intellectual fatigue, a lack of physical vitality, and drained emotions make it nearly impossible to foster healthy change. Leading biblically, confidently, and with integrity will require the willingness and determination to apply the nine power strategies that are presented here. The concepts are reviewed with challenging questions for reflection or discussion at the end of each chapter. Take the challenge and start using these nine tools in your next assignment to lead change. These power strategies can be your best friends!
