Abstract

Literature is a helpful lens for leadership studies and C.S. Lewis’ literature is especially helpful. Lewis’ continued impact on popular culture in addition to continued scholarly engagement with his work makes his literature especially valuable. While there might be concerns about drawing from Lewis as an example, readers are still encouraged to learn from the stories he has provided. Yet even so, Lewis presents insights from his own knowledge and life that are beneficial to the leader. By playing with Lewis’ stories, the reader can apply wisdom that may not have been conscious to Lewis but that still fits contemporary questions and concerns. Such play does not refuse to take the stories seriously, but to take them seriously without ignoring their nature as stories. In this study, readers will, hopefully, see the value of stories for leadership content and formation; see the storied nature of the self and the world; lead with fresh energy in their personal lives.
