Leadership Books

[matt326]

I have been volunteering at my church in the tech ministries for the past 4 years, and have now been added onto staff at my church. I'm currently completing my final year at college for Broadcasting: Radio, Television and Film, majoring in Television Production. I have been working in my new job as Director of New Media for about 2 months now, and was wondering if anyone had come across any good leadership books that especially helped them in the tech leadership department?

21 Irrefutable Laws of Leadership has always been one of my favorites. 21 indispensable Qualities of a Leader is a close second.

Please recommend some books..!

There are lots of great books out there on the topic of Church Leadership. I am currently working my way through The Gospel Coalitions Top 9 Recommended reads. If you go to TheGospelCoalition.com, you should be able to find it in their book review section. I am not aware of anyone who has written a book specifically about running a Church Technical or Media team.

I would however suggest reading Tim Challies: The Next Story or John Dyer: From the Garden to the City. As Media ministers and leaders we are called to lead our teams not just in technical excellence, but maintain a theological integrity in doing it. Both of these books are essential guides in doing so.

I hope this helps.
