So I'm here to talk about leadership and its relation to ethics, and hopefully that's

a bit of interest to you.

As I've been doing some of my work at the Naval Academy, I've been looking at leadership

from a theological perspective and really looking at the Christian New Testament and the gospel

through the lens of leadership, and it's opened up some aspects of those texts that I hadn't considered before.

And so what you see in Leadership Scholarship is, one is a lot of confusion, actually.

Christian Leadership Scholarship focuses on servant leadership, which is great,

but I'd like to make the assertion

that there's a lot more in the Gospels about leadership than just being a servant leadership.

Servant leadership in some ways really is the pinnacle of leadership, and I'll mention

that a little later. But there's a lot of resources in the gospel narratives that talk about

leadership. So that's what I've been trying to do and

say in reading some authors that that you know shed light on the gospel and different aspects of

phenomena associated with so um so it's hard to talk about leadership because there's just a coppony in the

arts about leadership too like if you go into the Naval Academy Library and go,

and this is probably for Georgia, too,

if you go to the leadership section,

there's like a wall of books that like stands from here to infinity.

And it's written, and they're written by really, really accomplished people too.

And they all have their different theories.

There's a woman up at Harvard University,'s Barbara Kellerman and she's a she's

at the Kennedy School of Government I think and she's she's a leadership
