The Culturally Intelligent Leader: Developing Multiethnic Communities in a Multicultural Age

2017 | Philosophy, Psychology & Social Sciences

What kind of leader is needed in a multicultural, multiethnic age? What is cultural intelligence and why is it essential to the future growth of the church? Why may third-culture children be the ablest leaders of tomorrow? In The Culturally Intelligent Leader, Hirpo Kumbi offers thought-provoking, practical answers to all these questions and more. Skillfully highlighting the challenges and opportunities that an increasingly multicultural Western society presents, he shows why leaders from all backgrounds need to learn to work together across cultural divides. Whether rooted in the host culture or working amongst new immigrant communities, indigenous leaders and reverse missionaries alike will need to adapt to reach the next generation and fully engage with the New Testament's model of intercultural mission. With many years' mission experience working amongst multiethnic communities in multicultural settings, Hirpo Kumbi is a vital voice to the leaders of today planting churches for tomorrow.
