Can just anyone learn to be an effective leader? Lyle E. Schaller-one of the nation's leading experts on chuch growth and planning-says YES! And he shows how in this practical, information-packed book. The starting point, Schaller says, is to recognize that leadership skills are learned. That's why scores of major colleges and universities now offer courses in leadership development. And the same skills that help forge effective leaders in government and business can be used in the local church, in the service of ministry.
