Summary

Successful leadership needs more than top-down strategic plans and lofty vision statements. Real leadership happens at the intersection of a leader’s inner life with the outer expression of care for their organization and the communities it serves. To find sustainable paths of leadership, we can look to reliable guidance from those whose legacy has stood the test of time.

Tried and True offers a unique convergence of the decades of leadership experience and scholarship of authors Margaret Diddams and Shirley Mullen with a historical exploration of John Wesley’s life and leadership. Informed by their personal and professional journeys in both higher education and the corporate world, Diddams and Mullen provide a comprehensive, scholarly, and practical study of John Wesley’s leadership practices that shaped not just the church but the entire society.

In Tried and True, Diddams and Mullen

  • speak to today's leadership fatigue with a focus on sustainable, character-driven leadership;
  • revive John Wesley's timeless leadership practices for modern challenges; and
  • integrate inner character with outward institutional impact for a vision of sustainable leadership.
  • offer a hope-filled vision for today’s leaders and the institutions they serve.
