The purpose of this book is to enable Christian leaders to understand their psychological type, using the MBTI (Myers-Briggs) personality indicator, and apply this information to generate new insights into their own experience and performance. It will enable leaders to develop better strategies to maximize their strengths and work with their recognized weaknesses.
A significant amount of stress is experienced by Christian leaders. This book will help them to focus on those aspects of their work that are energizing and life-giving.
Part 1 of the book introduces the theories of psychological type and how these apply to Christian leaders.
Part 2 includes detailed profile descriptions of each of the 16 MBTI personality types and explores the ‘comfort zone’ for each type and difficulties experienced by that type ‘outside the comfort zone.’ Each type description is written with the role of Christian leaders in mind and covers aspects of their role, for example, their experiences of worship, prayer, pastoral responsibilities, administration and working with others.
