The Jesus-Hearted Woman: 10 Leadership Qualities for Enduring & Endearing Influence is now on my highly-recommended list of leadership books for both experienced and emerging leaders. A gifted and skilled writer, Jodi Detrick masterfully weaves great literature, personal and biblical narratives, and insights drawn from her reflections on some of the best writing blended with her own unexpected journey in leadership. Her concluding coaching questions, scriptural passages, and little lessons for new leaders at the end of each chapter provide a great opportunity to pause and reflect on how to embody each of the ten leadership qualities she presents. This is a great book for both men and women!
