It begins with a chapter that contrasts leaders, managers, and administrators and the roles they each play. The book then presents the seven virtues from the Beatitudes and how these virtues result in leaders and managers' behaviors. The book then reviews the 15 characteristics of what love is and what love is not from the 1 Corinthians 12 passage. The book presents the four modalities of leaders as conveyed in the Ezekiel 1 and 10 chapters, as well as Revelations 4 where Ezekiel and John describe the four faces of the winged beings. The modalities are described in terms of contemporary leaders interacting with employees in the workplace. A chapter follows, based on the Parable of the Vineyard and how leaders should provide a minimum living wage. The book then compares the wife in Proverbs 31 to a good leader/manager in today's contemporary organization. The book ends with an admonition fromEcclesiastes 3:1 about the need for leaders/managers to step away and not meddle when the leader/manager's role is finished. Throughout the book, composite case examples provide practical application of the concepts to contemporary organizations. 410 0$aChristian Faith Perspectives in Leadership and Business,$x2946-4587 606 $aBusiness ethics 606 $aIndustrial organization 606 $aTheology 606 $aBusiness Ethics 606 $aOrganization 606 $aChristian Theology 615 0$aBusiness ethics. 615 0$aIndustrial organization. 615 0$aTheology. 615 14$aBusiness Ethics. 615 24$aOrganization. 615 24$aChristian Theology. 676 $a253 700 $aWinston$b Bruce E$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0935065 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910298196703321 996 $aBiblical Principles of Leading and Managing Employees$92531213 997 $aUNINA
