Enticing and Convicting!

I wonder why I enjoy reading Andy Stanley books? He pushes me, challenges me, convicts me and leads me to think about leadership and church in ways I had not considered.  Sometimes, I think I just don't like him!  

But I really do like Andy.  His writing is clear, it is not filled with technical terms, it's down to earth writing which helps me process his points.  In this book, which is not new, it was originally published in 2006, Andy discusses the 5 C's of leadership.

Andy spends 3 chapters on each topic and addresses leadership qualities such as ~  
Competency 
Courage
Clarity
Coaching
Character

Andy helps each person ~ 
-Discover and play to their strengths 
-Harness your fears 
-Leverage uncertainty 
-Enlist a leadership coach 
-Maintain moral authority


Overall, this is an excellent book.  Easy to read, but it will be difficult to put into practice.  Lots to chew on!
