Abstract

The hustle culture of twenty-first-century entrepreneurial leadership does not always value patience, suffering, and followership. There are valuable lessons one can learn during the developmental phase of leadership. Hidden within the narrative of Joshua one finds that “following well” may develop the resilience one needs to lead under pressure. This chapter explores the lessons Joshua learned from Moses as he transitioned from follower to leader. It then connects those lessons with the strategic decision-making that Joshua made while under intense organizational and environmental stress.
