Book Synopsis

From Sanctuary to Boardroom: A Jewish Approach to Leadership examines key Jewish texts on leadership and applies these concepts to today's issues associated with leading and managing organizations. Discussing authority, charisma, uses and abuses of power, and shared power, Lewis offers an understanding of classical models of Jewish leadership and translates these models into issues and questions which are the core of contemporary concern of existing and future Jewish leaders.
