A Christian Perspective on Managerial Leadership

Abstract

Increasingly, Christians are discovering that the secular philosophy of management and leadership frequently conflicts with their Christian values. Many Christian leaders (both in Christian organizations and secular ones) are looking for another perceptive on management. This paper is an attempt to provide this perceptive. It argues that even though traditional management viewpoints cannot entirely be faulted, they seem to deviate significantly in their dealing with people from God's original purpose of creating man in His own image.
