Many who lead or who aspire to lead rightly champion the importance of hard skills. These are skills that are informed by quantitative measurement and analytical thinking, among others. Knowing the numbers, embracing leadership tasks, and implementing the right strategies are important but no longer enough to be an effective leader. Indeed, the best of the leadership literature consistently emphasizes the importance of soft skills as this quote illustrates: "The capabilities required of top leaders include new and often 'softer' skills that are rarely explicitly recognized or fostered in the corporate world." (Harvard Business Review, July-August, 2022, p.42) In The Softer Side of Leadership, Dr. Habecker, who spent 35 consecutive years as a CEO of two universities and one large NYC non-profit, makes the case for the integration of soft skills into every aspect of the leader's personal life and the organizational agenda. He draws from his own experience, that of other international colleagues, the leadership literature, and from the Scriptures. The first part of the book focuses on the soft skills that help to continuously fuel the healthy development of the leader's spiritual, mental, physical, and emotional foundations. The second part focuses on the skills that drive organizational effectiveness and contribute to healthier cultures. Each chapter includes "The Chapter Idea" summary and a practical application: "Putting the Idea to Work." The essential idea of the book is this: As readers develop their soft skill competencies, including the skills, behaviors, practices, and disciplines presented in The Softer Side of Leadership, and combine them with their hard skill competencies, they will be better equipped to be more effective as leaders which will likely result in both healthier personal lives and healthier organizations.
