This book expands on the New Testament leadership principles introduced in Volume 1 and draws connections to the contemporary organizational leadership literature. By applying these principles to analyze modern organizations and leaders, it aims to uncover how they are manifested within an organization and their impact on both the organization and individual employees. Through interviews with leaders and coding of the transcripts, the chapter authors develop scale-development items to measure the concept of organizational spirituality within organizations. This volume offers theoretical framing and practical applications for scholars and practitioners in the field of organizational leadership, particularly those interested in the Christian perspective.
