Summary

A controversial concept in the modern workplace, servant leadership is the management philosophy that balances morality, mission achievement, and promoting the best interests of the key business stakeholders. Developing Christian Servant Leadership provides a Christian faith-based perspective on servant leader character development in the workplace and argues that leadership requires passionate and authentic biblical integration.

Christian servant leader character is the holistic harmony of moral motives, thoughts, and behaviors produced by a life surrendered and led by the Holy Spirit. Using a conceptual framework anchored in research, Roberts applies servant leader character principles within the context of the workplace and other key life domains. The specific essays question assumptions, appearances, and the influence of other worldviews to trigger deep introspection regarding motives, means and ends with the goal of promoting ongoing character growth.
