About

Leaders: Are you feeling overwhelmed in this post-pandemic world? The one-size-fits-all approaches no longer work. You need creative strategies based on godly wisdom that bring people together and break new ground.

In The Ways of the Leader, Bill Mowry unpacks four competencies for everyday leaders in churches, ministries, communities, and businesses. To generate wisdom as a leader, you must become a

- lifelong learner who views your life and leadership as God's classroom for discovery;
- collaborator who engages people to explore, create, and implement new approaches;
- cultural detective who examines assumptions and values where you lead and live; and
- ministry innovator who discovers solutions that are crafted to the specific needs of your community.
Rise up against the chaos of today as you nurture the wisdom to choose what is good (what brings life and nourishes people) and right (what is just and fair) and impact those right where you are with practical solutions.

"Typically, resources on leadership are about achieving better performance, effectiveness, and outcomes. But this book is refreshingly different: It focuses on what the leader must become to wisely impact the cultures they serve in practical and transformative ways. This is the kind of leader that doesn't crash and burn. Bill Mowry's writing is insightful yet easy to understand. He brings clarity and practicality to the question of how to lead from ordinary life assignments for extraordinary influence and impact. His examples bring clarity combined with exercises to maximize learning. Bill's writing style draws the reader in-inviting the reader to walk the pathway that leads to a relationally wise, emotionally intelligent, and spiritually astute leader."
Patti Damiani, Relational Wisdom ministry consultant (RW360)
"This world needs leaders, men and women of courage and character with learners' hearts. How can we grow as people-as individuals and in our families, workplaces, and places of worship-who influence with cultural wisdom and innovation? This is the beauty and power of Bill's writing. He provides practical and concrete tools that can be practiced in our everyday lives. A much-needed resource in our world filled with polarization, silos, and independence."
