Abstract

An important issue that surfaces in any discussion of leadership is how the supervision, mentoring, and formation of religious professionals might change if we looked at what we do through the lens of leadership. If we took the challenge of some denomination executives seriously to focus more on the training of leaders, how might our work as clinical theological educators change? What are the implications or applications of leadership studies to what we do as supervisors, mentors, and theological educators? What follows are two rather unique essays that describe two applications illustrating how models of leadership theory can and are being applied to and shape the work of supervising, educating, and mentoring religious leaders.
