When the first edition was written, more than a decade ago, there\u003cbr\u003e was a limited pool of resources available to help practitioners in the field, even less addressing\u003cbr\u003e the Canadian context. Dan Sheffield brought a missiologist's perspective to this discussion\u003cbr\u003e that had been shaped by lived experience in North America's multi-ethnic reality and churchplanting\u003cbr\u003e experience in post-apartheid, urban South Africa.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eOver the past decade, however, a proliferation of resources on multi-ethnic, intercultural, \u003cbr\u003e multi-racial, multicultural churches have entered the marketplace. Again, almost all written\u003cbr\u003e through the lens of the American experience, and often, focused on the mechanics of\u003cbr\u003e multicultural community, rather than the challenges specific to the leadership task. With\u003cbr\u003e another 15 years under his belt, of working with leaders in multi-ethnic congregations across\u003cbr\u003e Canada, USA, Mumbai, Manila, Accra, Bangkok and Budapest, Sheffield brings further\u003cbr\u003e reflection on the development of intercultural leadership skills.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis second edition of The Multicultural Leader deals with the role of congregational\u003cbr\u003e leadership in embedding the multicultural vision as a way of \"seeing.\" The author draws\u003cbr\u003e from various disciplines to develop a profi le of leaders necessary to initiate and sustain the\u003cbr\u003e multicultural congregation. Sheffield's conclusion is that leaders in multi-ethnic congregations\u003cbr\u003e must move through a developmental process from an ethnocentric, monocultural perspective\u003cbr\u003e to a multi-ethnic, intercultural approach in order to serve as enablers of multicultural\u003cbr\u003e congregations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 160\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.34 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e May 21, 2015\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47221549138169,"sku":"9781926798707","price":24.82,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/U3pKbmNEa2RWY0pmdUNPYTMyU21kUT09.webp?v=1768195062","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/the-multicultural-leader-developing-a-catholic-personality-second-edition-paperback","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
