Description
Leading Without Power: Finding Hope in Serving Community by Max De Pree is a thought-provoking exploration of leadership and community. De Pree argues that successful organizations are not controlled collections of human resources, but dynamic communities of free people who follow willingly or not at all. In this book, De Pree reveals the importance of leading without power, where leaders mobilize communities to achieve meaningful work and lives fulfilled. He draws inspiration from nonprofits, which he sees as mirrors of our greatest aspirations, where people work for the opportunity to contribute to the common good. Brimming with rich, warm, and wise advice, Leading Without Power offers an enlightened look at the forces that drive selfless accomplishment. With its vibrant and insightful analysis, this book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in leadership, community, and service.
