Representing the Kingdom in a Representative Democracy.
Representing the Kingdom in a Representative Democracy.
Dorothy Burton is an author, empowerment teacher, lay Christian counselor, speaker; and, subject matter expert in authentic faith in public servant leadership, ethics, and truth in public space.
At the core of her calling and purpose is the belief that truth, character, and integrity in leadership still matter - because the good of the people still matters.
Dorothy believes that Christianity and representative democracy can and must co-exist in America but American government is representative of all people - people of faith and no faith.
To live together as Americans, government must be of the people, by the people, and for the people.
To lead well, leaders must respect and honor the dignity of every human.
Dorothy writes, teaches and speaks to empower and inspire leaders, emerging leaders and others serving in public space to help them achieve optimum self-development, optimized individual, organizational, and team effectiveness.
She helps governments, organizations, teams, and individuals.
Keen insight, experience, and wisdom gained from decades in public servant leadership have equipped and positioned Dorothy to advise and counsel leaders in crisis and help resolve complicated relational and organizational issues.
Teaching proven principles and practical applications to better equip, motivate, and inspire leaders and emerging leaders, Dorothy speaks and keynotes for leadership and faith-based conferences, develops and presents proprietary leadership training and development seminars and workshops; and, facilitates local government and faith-based workshops, day and weekend retreats.
"Using solid biblical principles so simple even high school students can understand, Dorothy Burton explores the seven principal reasons behind the often-surprising downfall of those esteemed as being honest, disciplined, respectable, intelligent, and committed to God, family, community, and career.
"Good" people whom no one would ever suspect would steal from the treasury they have been entrusted to oversee, have a sordid affair, take money under the table, be fired from their job, or use their position of influence to exploit others.
Some problems we bring upon ourselves simply because we don't know ourselves. This book will help you avoid becoming your own worst enemy as you learn how to become more self-aware.
Written from a biblical frame of reference, nearly every page is filled with wisdom and encouragement as Dorothy Burton helps the reader identify, control and overcome things common to us all, but often missed or carelessly dismissed when we insist upon living our life our way apart from God believing we know best... until we don't.
