Do you lead from your mission . . . or your shadow mission?
A mission is the highest purpose to which God calls us; a shadow mission is an authentic mission that has been derailed. Every leader has a mission—and a shadow mission. Leaders must learn to name their shadow missions if they are ever to overcome them.
With characteristic humor and insight, Ortberg gives readers the tools to identify and combat the shadows that confront them and their organizations. From the story of a young Hebrew girl named Esther come the lessons that allow leaders to not only defeat their shadow mission, but to live out the authentic mission to which God calls them.
