''These essays...shed light on 'secrets' that all academic leaders should find of lasting value: the importance of 'showing up' as a whole person; the centrality of tenacious relationships; the vital role of rich, transformative conversations with all stakeholders; and the courage it takes to lead in ways that do not always conform to our cultural model assumptions about how leaders should act'' --Parker Palmer, author of Healing and the Heart of Democracy, The Courage to Teach, and Let Your Life Speak
''If you are drawn to the topic of leadership, especially in the context of a Christian serving in higher education, this book is a must read. I am challenged by these amazing authors and feel short-changed in not having their insights earlier in my career. I will call upon this deep well of scholarship, theory, practice, and stories many times in my work with diverse leaders.'' --Robert C. Andringa, president emeritus of the Council for Christian Colleges & Universities, managing partner of The Andringa Group
''Thriving in Leadership is an engaging conversation about the complexities, pressures, and joys of senior leadership in Christian higher education. The authors draw on their vast professional experience and the latest leadership literature to offer insights into the best practices in organizational leadership.'' --Alec Hill, president of InterVarsity Christian Fellowship USA
