"Perhaps a little over the top in some spots, in its fascination with living systems. But it connected with where I am at the moment, concerned for my own inner transformation/character as a leader (over against the tricks and tops of leadership gurus).
The most poignant moment for me was when they referred to Henri Nouwen's observation of how Jesus' temptations in the wilderness were the same temptations spiritual leaders face:
(1) to be relevant (turning stones to bread) (2) to be spectacular (jumping from the pinnacle of the temple) (3) to be powerful (compromising in order to rule)"
