Reviews"Not all driving forces within a leader are positive. Becoming a strong leader requires not only the cultivation of God-given gifts, but the ability to overcome negative factors. I recommend Overcoming the Dark Side of Leadership . . . to anyone striving to overcome obstacles in order to become a more effective leader."John Maxwell, founder, Injoy"Gary and Sam give leaders permission to confront the darkest battles within in order to serve others in life-transforming ways. For all who are bold enough to embark on this courageous journey, redemption, restoration, and renewal will be your rewards."Dr. Stephen A. Macchia, founder and president, Leadership Transformations, Inc.; director, Pierce Center, Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary; author, Becoming a Healthy Team"One of the most important qualities an effective leader must possess is often the most lacking: self-awareness. Effective leaders are acutely self-aware, knowing not only their strengths but also their weaknesses--the dark side of those strengths. And without this self-awareness, many leaders crash and burn without realizing their full potential for the kingdom of God. In Overcoming the Dark Side of Leadership, Gary McIntosh and Sam Rima have done a masterful job of helping leaders avoid the pitfalls that have consumed far too many leaders. This is a must-read for any leader who is serious about taking his or her leadership to the next level."Dr. Albert L. Winseman, global practice leader for faith communities, The Gallup Organization; author, Growing an Engaged Church: How to Stop "Doing Church" and Start Being the Church Again"Every leader has a 'shadow' side, like the dark side of the moon--areas that are disguised or explored and unrecognized. I am convinced that our leadership will be stronger and the dangers of collapse lesser if we become aware of these dark areas and bring them into the light early."Leighton Ford, president, Leighton Ford Ministries"There is no question in my mind of the practicality, relevancy, and usefulness of this book. I have a difficult time thinking who would not be helped by reading it; seminarians, pastors, and denominational and parachurch leaders would all benefit. . . . Anyone who is serious about being a good leader will be helped by this book."Robert Ricker, former president, Baptist General Conference"This book will help you gain the insights necessary to protect yourself from significant failure."Rob Angel, creator of Pictionary
