The Leadership Mantle

The Leadership Mantle

Diane Swanson | 2022

Abstract

God bestows a Leadership Mantle on believers and has commissioned them to rule. Leading is automatic, except for those who remove their leadership mantle. Those who have judged themselves as unworthy or have unhealthy hearts have mantle issues. They lead poorly, minimally, or harshly. They do not prepare for leadership, do not speak up for promotion, unwittingly sabotage their success, or avoid leadership altogether. One of the main reasons more than half of all major organizational change endeavors fail is that the leader fails to change. If you are the senior leader and if you want your organization to change, you must change first.

The Leadership Mantle takes a spiritual approach to address the barriers to inner leadership. It allows the reader to address heart issues and transform inner leadership abilities. Readers will take a divine approach, asking God to intervene in every area, especially the ones that have escaped their notice. The Leadership Mantle addresses motherhood, fatherhood, forgiveness, strongholds, idolatry, and more. After each chapter, the reader will meditate on scripture, answer reflective questions, and pray with guided help. The leadership and guided prayer section is the place of transformation. Engage and watch what God will do in you and through you. Take some time to work on your inner leadership. Bring your perspectives, beliefs, concerns, and all you influence to the Lord. Sit quietly and ask God for divine assistance to improve your leadership and strengthen your soul.
