“The conflicts and crises described in this welcome book occur in every venue where humans interact. With tremendous and generous compassion both for leaders, as well as for those who make healthy leadership so difficult, the authors of this guide provide insights that are every bit as much spiritual as they are emotional, psychological, and organizational. Whether you’re in the midst of a crisis of leadership and you’re desperate for some new insight to help navigate it (and who is not?) or whether the heat of the catastrophe is past and you simply hope to learn about “what just happened, and how can I do better next time” (and there will be a next time!) this is a concise, supremely organized, and clear road map to inner change that can free and empower. The insight about The Space is really all about the care of the soul of a leader. This is a must read for anyone engaged in leading communities through the quagmires that can so easily cause us to unnecessarily forfeit our best selves, to no one’s benefit.”
The Rt. Rev. A. Robert Hirschfeld, D.D., Episcopal Bishop of New Hampshire
