Before diving into solutions, Scazzero wants us to sit with a diagnosis — take this week to consider honestly whether the portrait he paints of the emotionally unhealthy leader looks familiar.
Discussion Questions
8 questions1.Scazzero opens by describing leaders who are outwardly fruitful but inwardly depleted — busy, driven, and privately struggling. How much of that description resonates with your own experience of leadership, past or present?
2.The author makes a sharp distinction between secular leadership and Christian leadership. In his view, what is the defining difference, and why does he believe Christian leaders too often default to a secular model even with Christian vocabulary layered on top?
3.Scazzero introduces the concept that "who we are" (our being) must precede and shape "what we do" (our doing). Where have you seen the opposite assumption at work — either in yourself or in leadership culture around you?
