Every effective human being is a leader at one point or another in life. I have heard that Nehemiah was one of the greatest leaders ever. I became interested in how he began. What did he do first?
A Prayer of Nehemiah, The Birth of Leadership is a look at his starting point. I'm sharing this with you as a Kindle book on Amazon.com.
Since you are already a leader of somebody, do you need to be a great leader?
Assuming a role of leadership can be challenging. We face all kinds of problems when we step out to lead. The struggles a leader faces are human problems that have not changed over the centuries of history.
Nehemiah, a cupbearer for a Persian king more than 400 years before Christ was born, led a company of his people from Babylon to Jerusalem, where he restored the walls and civil authority. Where his country once existed, he found ruins. His challenge was for him a great one.
This man Nehemiah has been studied and admired through the centuries as an example of a great leader. In his writing he admitted his human frailties and told how he coped.
A Prayer of Nehemiah is an informal conversation about the first prayer Nehemiah wrote in his book. His starting point is surprising but effective.
If you are ready to develop your leadership skills, read this little book. It is not necessary to buy a Kindle to read Kindle books. Simply download the software onto your computer.
