Leading Without Power: 9 Paths Toward Non-Coercive Ministry Leadership

Hierarchical, coercive leadership should have no place in the church.

But if we move away from those unbiblical (and ineffective) forms of power-based leadership, we still need to lead. In Leading Without Power, Mark Oestreicher explores — in very pragmatic ways — what it might look like for us to replace power-based leadership modalities with other approaches.

Leading Without Power unpacks nine metaphorical job titles, with stories and examples of what it looks like to embody these mindsets and practices:

- Competency Facilitator

- Culture Evangelist

- Mission Curator

- Storytelling Host

- Champion of Hope

- Uniqueness DJ

- Contextualization Czar

- Trust Guard

- Collaboration Guide

Read it alone or collectively, with a leadership team (volunteer, staff, or both), looking for ways that different team members can utilize their passions and gifts to build a robust and flourishing culture of people development and values-based leadership.
