| Summary: | “Women in Leadership is very timely and a must-read for all leaders, especially those in ministry. As a woman in Biblical Higher Education leadership, I know this book is biblically based and research-centered regarding the important role of women in leadership, particularly within Christianity.” --Dr. Mary Drabik, President, South Florida Bible College & Theological Seminary "Ertel, and contributing authors, write with passion and conviction on one of today's leading and important church leadership issues." --Michael Fletcher, Author, Empowering Leadership “I am elated to recommend this Bible-based, research-centered book on the topic of women in leadership. Written with scholarly insight and a winsome tone, the contributors draw from the ancient, biblical text while making insightful contemporary applications in a manner that will equip and challenge readers across the wide Christian tradition. While one may not agree with every fine detail of this book, the contributors offer us a compelling reminder of the intrinsic value of women and their indispensable role in the church and the world.” --Scott Adams, PhD, Professor, Manna University This book offers a biblically-based and research-centered exploration of the unique and important role of women in leadership across multiple domains. Divided into two sections, the chapters begin by examining biblical examples of women in leadership, such as Esther and the woman of Proverbs 31, and passages focused on women, such as 1 Timothy 2 and Romans 16, before presenting contemporary perspectives with discussions on topics such as submission, DEI, and work-life balance. Taking a neutral position not siding with feminist or patriarchal extremes, this book will contribute to debates on leadership and gender in the fields of organizational behaviour, HRM, I/O psychology, and gender studies. Stefanie Ertel is the Dean of Distance Education, a Program Director, Professor, and Brand Director at Manna University. Doris Gomez, PhD, is Dean of the School of Business & Leadership at Regent University. Kathleen Patterson, PhD, is Professor and Director of the Doctor of the Strategic Leadership program at Regent University |
