Biblical Principles of Hiring and Developing Employees

This book begins with the scriptural support for person-organization fit and person-job fit. The book then examines scriptural support for the four-Cs of people's work-fit: Calling, Competence, Confidence, and Character. Finally, the book uses Acts 6:1-7 as a basis for identifying the type of people one should look to hire. The book covers two development concepts: Nomos, about ruling in an organization, and progressive responsibility from Luke 16:10. The chapters present the concepts from a scriptural base and include composite case examples that relate to contemporary organizations.

Combines the exegetical study of concepts from scripture and personal examples to help illustrate how to manage/lead from a Biblical base Written those who wish to study management/leadership principles from a Biblical base Based on a wide variety of concepts from scripture
