A Cloister in the World: emerging visions of leadership in contemporary Benedictine school chaplaincy explores the essential interconnectedness of the Benedictine monastic tradition, its development in education, the nature of contemporary Benedictine school chaplaincy, and the challenges it faces, such as transmitting the Benedictine charism and renewing spiritual capital. Within this context, the Benedictine vision of leadership is considered including the four leadership models of abba, shepherd, doctor, and steward; invitational leadership; servant leadership, and the nature of lay Benedictine leadership. Twenty leaders in Benedictine education were interviewed and secondary sources were used to gather a rich data set across three different research sites.
