Solomon On Leadership: Life coaching and leadership maxims from a king.

This book is dedicated to the many that struggle under tyrannical, despotic management enamored with autocratic power, self-serving aggrandizement, their own importance and image.

The wisdom paradigm of leadership.

Leadership is a critical examination of the core values and character qualities that define effectual leadership: Discussion topics: autocratic rule, risk taking, communication, alliances, and accountability. It unveils the nature and source of wisdom and speaks directly to current events shaping the church, government, and industry.

Solomon’s Proverbs are nested under character essentials: Truth and Trust, Knowledge and Discernment, Work-Life Balance, Plans and Deeds, Mentoring, Humility, Pride, Seduction, Industry and Wealth. Sections are editorialized with maxims that focus on shaping core values foundational to servant/shepherding leadership; belief in the worth and value of others.

Extracts:

• Leadership skills are rarely acquired through textbook study or classroom instruction. The attributes, qualities, and core values of effective leaders are best learned and put into practice when leader aspirants are mentored by or otherwise exposed to proven leader talent.

• Authority, power, and position have an overreaching tendency to inflate ego; keeping a right self-image tempers pride.

• Accountability is a step-up quality that is always exampled.

• Doing the wrong thing, even exceptionally well, is of no value.

• Subordinating personality likes and dislikes is part of the job.

• Connection and/or position often afford the inane and unworthy a place at the table.
