Kate Coleman’s MetaMorph

An invitation to transform your leadership

Something is wrong with our inherited leadership models. As a Christian leader, I’ve been in too many rooms where, perhaps poorly disguised by their spiritual language, the alpha males have nonetheless loomed large! In the past, I sadly ended up playing that game myself, while at the same time longing to find an alternative way to lead.

A few years ago, I heard Kate Coleman from Next Leadership speak at an event and recognised a strength in her leadership that was altogether different. That same day, I asked if she would consider mentoring me and was delighted when she agreed. I’m pleased that some of the wisdom I’ve benefited from since then has now made it into her new book MetaMorph.

It’s not only that the traditional leadership models are wanting, as has been demonstrated in so many of the failures in Christian leadership in recent years, but also that these rapidly changing and uncertain times require us to adopt new ways of leading. Kate’s book and the fresh perspective it brings feels, therefore, especially timely.

At the book’s launch on 7th November, it was great to see the many women who have been inspired by Kate and her leadership. But I am convinced that Kate’s biblically inspired wisdom is more desperately needed by men like me, who need to rethink how we lead others, and how we might embrace a transformative and inclusive approach that begins with a journey of self-discovery.

For this reason, RiverTree is championing the book, and offering you two invitations:

  1. On 22nd November we’ll be making a bulk order of the book and will benefit from a discount that enables us to send you a copy for the reduced price of £13.99 (including postage and packing).
  2. Early in the new year we’ll be hosting an online book club to discuss the contents of the book. We’ll meet for an hour at lunchtime over four consecutive weeks:
    • 12.30pm, Friday 10th January 2025 – discussing Part One: Introducing Metamorphisis
    • 12.30pm, Friday 17th January 2025 – discussing Part Two: Transforming Identity
    • 12.30pm, Friday 24th January 2025 – discussing Part Three: Transforming Community
    • 12.30pm, Friday 31st January 2025 – discussing Part Four: Transforming Mission

You don’t need to buy the book from RiverTree to be able to attend the book club, and anyone is welcome to join us to discuss MetaMorph, but I am particularly encouraging my (white) male colleagues to come along as I have a feeling that we might have the most to learn from Kate!

You can purchase using the shopping cart below, and register for the book club by clicking here.

[Please note we’ll only be taking orders until midnight on 21st November, 2024, and books will arrive in late November/early December.]

Please do join us as we engage with this thought-provoking work. Together, let’s discover a path towards a better way to lead.
