Inhaltsangabe

Discussions about leadership, even those centered on women, often overlook contributions made by Asian and Asian North American women. Now, Su Yon Pak and Jung Ha Kim share stories of Asian and Asian North American women who found their ways, sometimes circuitously, sometimes unexpectedly, into leadership roles. Divided into three sections—"Remembering Wisdom," Unsettling Wisdom," and "Inciting Wisdom"—the book presents narratives of leadership experiences in the fields of social activism, parish ministry, teaching, U.S. Army chaplaincy, religious history, Christian denominational work, theology, nonprofit organization, theological social ethics, clinical spiritual care education in healthcare systems, and community organizing. Leading Wisdom challenges conventional understanding through its creative reimagining of what it means to lead.
