Summary:

While books and articles on leadership abound, most of them are
written by "successful" men who look at the world through the lens of
a Western business model. The standard for success is based on the
bottom line--financial growth in both the personal and corporate
realms. This perspective has infected Christian leadership literature
as well. In Leadership Reconsidered, Ruth A. Tucker calls for a
revised definition--one that abandons the love of power and success
for the eternal value of legacy. She challenges the assumption that a
leader must by definition have followers, be an extrovert, crave
recognition, and dominate others. Instead, legacy encompasses the
values of behind-the-scenes influence that are available to everyone
and last beyond the grave. This unique and refreshing perspective on
leadership is accessible and engaging and will make an impact on
anyone who takes it to heart.
