Personality Type and Religious Leadership
By Roy M. Oswald and Otto Kroeger
Paperback
(1988)
In this Alban Institute publication, the ideas of personality type are applied to religious leadership (ministry, etc.). To believe that any religious leader can be all things to all people is a recipe for disaster: each of us has preferences and strengths. Many different personality types make excellent religious leaders, but each will have its unique strengths and difficulties. The book's now a few years old, but it's still quite relevant to understanding congregational dynamics.
