Overview

This book, Leading from the inside out calls upon leaders to look within themselves before they embark on leading others. Leading from the inside out constantly reminds the leader to look into the mirror and ask questions to the man within. It not just what you have learned as a leader that really counts, but whether you continue practicing the things you have learned. Leadership starts from within. Leaders are called agents of change, but how can you change others when you haven't been changed? Dr. Ekobena blends spiritual and professional values. His numerous scriptural quotations and biblical stories sharply illustrated by contemporary examples are vivid. His Western and local illustrations reveal that the leadership plight is international. His insightfulness on the subject backed by his personal experience of several years drives his message home; if our world has to change; if we have to transform our society to a premier world like other developed nations; if the impact of Christianity has to be felt in our century, then we have to redo our leadership. Personality and performance have to blend, character and competence have to be become prime leadership pursuits, attitude and aptitude must intermingle, and integrity and instruction must become twin factors of our strengths. The one reveals the inner, being and the others the outward manifestations. The two are inseparable. This book thus helps us not only to know the way but to walk the way; to be models to future generations and trustworthy mentors of a perishing millennial generation that is tossed to and from by postmodernism and prevailing paradigm paralysis. This book will challenge your leadership perception, transform you from inside and perfect your performance. The practical exercises and think through drills will help the reader not only to have a good reading but to digest and internalize the content. I strongly recommend it both to seasoned leaders and leaders in the making. While the former would be reminded to be mentors and legacy models in their leadership pursuits, the next generation leaders will be encouraged to build the values that would make them successful in their leadership quest.
