Being Spiritual while Doing Research
Although the topic of spirituality has been experiencing a renaissance since the end of the previous century, it is not always associated with academic activities. The book invites scholars from all fields to rethink this traditional divide between knowledge and spirituality, offering fresh perspectives on how the two can coexist and enhance each other. Twenty-nine authors from across the world illustrate how scholarly pursuits in various disciplines can be deeply spiritual journeys.
Leaders between Role Model and Idol
The guiding question for this book is: Should leaders become role models or idols or both or neither? The theologian Dietrich Bonhoeffer had a clear opinion on this: “If the leader tries to become the idol the led are looking for – something the led always hope from their leader – then the image of the leader shifts to one of a misleader” (Radio message, 1 Feb. 1933). This book presents interesting case studies from Africa, America, Europe, spanning various disciplines and time periods. It does not provide quick-fix approaches but invites reflective practitioners and scholars alike to dig deeper. It grew out of an inspiring leadership conference held in Budapest, September 2024.
