Empowered to lead from the overflowing well of the Spirit
Affirmed by God, Black women are gifted, prepared, and poised to lead yet often face barriers that affect our well-being.
Have you been made to feel like an outsider within your company or church? Even at the top of your game, do you often struggle with the burden of being everything to everybody? Then you know well the unique opportunities and challenges of leading while Black and a woman.
Drawing from the biblical account of the Samaritan woman at the well, Jeanne Porter King shows how this outsider has been reduced to a stereotype by the same racist and sexist forces that attempt to reduce you to a stereotype and hinder your God-given call to leadership. King shows how God uniquely positioned and equipped her to lead her people to the truth despite attempts to keep her silent and small.
If you long to lead from a strong spiritual place of wholeness rather than a set of expectations you had no part in setting, this book offers you the inspiration, encouragement, and practical tools to make leading well a reality in your life.

If you're a leader who is ready to reimagine leadership with principles and practices that will bring new life and longevity to your work and ministry, this book is for you!"--
