The Living Church Podcast Learning from Global Leaders with Mary Ho
Today we'll be touching down in Kansas, Japan, Africa, China, and the middle east, for some global lessons in leadership.
How are Christians formed as effective leaders, and how do they in turn form effective leaders? How do we learn leadership from beyond our home turf to serve in fearlessly contextualized ways?
My guest today is Dr. Mary Ho. Mary is an expert in strategic leadership, and she is the International Executive Leader of All Nations International, a global Christian missions training and sending organization. She is currently co-teaching a 3-year class on leadership in the global Christian context at Gordon Conwell. Mary is also the author of a number of articles that I'll link today in the show notes including, "When Leaders Drink Tea Together," "The Transcendent Culture of Servant Leadership," and "Growing Global Women Leaders from the Majority World."
Are there Western leadership models that can be exported elsewhere? When and why?
How do we lead with vision, or even with a charismatic personality, while building nurture rather than going toxic?
What can global north organizational leadership learn from global south Christianity?
And what are some benefits and limits to reading leadership books?
Take off that leadership cap for just a second. Sit back, relax. Maybe have a cup of tea. We hope you enjoy the conversation.
