Lessons in Leadership: A Weekly Reading of the Jewish Bible

By Jonathan Sacks, Baron Sacks

Categories: Business & Money, Religion & Spirituality

Lessons in Leadership (2015) is the first themed companion to Rabbi Jonathan Sacks's Covenant & Conversation series, with one short essay on leadership for each weekly portion of the Torah. The foreword is by Ronald Heifetz of Harvard. Sacks draws lessons on power, authority, vision and failure from figures such as Abraham, Joseph and Moses, and pairs them with examples from politics, business and history. A recurring theme is that no one is born a leader.
