Leadership for Greatness: Leadership Lessons from the Book of Nehemiah

By Dr. Pedro Garcia

Life's most persistent and urgent question is "What are you doing for others?" asked Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.That quote, we believe, summarizes the essence of this book. Our goal has been to look at the leadership of Nehemiah, how he lived his life, his character, his work, his service, his sacrifice, and his commitment to help the people of Judah in 444 B.C. and then how to draw parallels that can be applied to us today. A quick search on the internet revealed over 18,700 book titles on leadership and another 6056 books on specific leaders. Many of these books are excellent studies on leadership. Likewise, we found numerous books written on the leadership style of the many world leaders throughout history. Our quick search revealed studies on the leadership style of Jesus, Winston Churchill, Abraham Lincoln, Moses, Robert E. Lee, Ronald Reagan, George W. Bush, The Sopranos, Vince Lombardi, Santa Claus, Ike Eisenhower, Napoleon Bonaparte, Julius Caesar, Herb Kelleher, Jack Welch, Roberto Goizueta, Phil Jackson, Red Auerback, Bear Bryant, Joe Paterno, Henry Ford, Margaret Mead, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., Teddy Roosevelt, Mao Tse-Tung, Attila the Hun, George Patton, John Wooden, Joseph Stalin, Nikita Khrushchev, Leonid Brezhnev, Mikhail Gorbachev and Gandhi. We even found a book on the leadership demonstrated in the TV show Star Trek and another book on the leadership learned from Mickey Mouse. We found books on bad leadership, quantum leadership, one minute manager leadership, dysfunctional leadership, gender leadership styles of men and women, educational leadership, Christian leadership, military leadership, business leadership, student leadership, spiritual leadership and athletics leadership.
