Jesus the Strategic Leader

Abstract

Jesus was a great strategic leader who changed the world in many ways. Close study of what he did and how he did it reveals a pattern of behavior that is extremely useful and relevant to the modern strategic leader. This paper explores Jesus as a strategic leader and develops a model of his leadership. The model is comprised of seven elements, starting with the "outputs" of what he did on the exterior, and working downward through what he was as a person, and finally, into the "inputs" or base, from which he drew his purpose and strength: (1) Love and Care for Others, (2) Teacher and Mentor, (3) Servant Leader, (4) Personal Example, (5) Self Development and Care, (6) Commitment, and (7) Purpose. The bottom line is that Jesus was a superb strategic leader who offers a timeless and incomparable example of how to lead.
