Leadership as a Research Problem in the Pastoral Theology

Summary/Abstract: The issue of leadership is relatively rare in the pastoral theology. However, dueto the cognitive and practical reasons, it is necessary to conduct further morefrequent research on leadership. Such research can be conducted thanks to thecooperation between pastoral theology and the disciplines which are beyondtheology, such as pedagogy, sociology, psychology and management science.These sciences are treated as auxiliary sciences for the pastoral theology. Thecooperation between the pastoral theology and the auxiliary sciences from be-yond theology involves research on such subjects as: the essence of leadership,the features of leaders, the leadership behaviours, the models of leadership,group communication, the formation of leaders etc. Apart from the coopera-tion between pastoral theology and the auxiliary sciences, it is also possible topractise the leadership theology. It can constitute an additional theological subdiscipline which is called into existence similarly to the charity theology. Therange of the leadership theology, similarly to the charity theology, is includedinto the pastoral function of the realization of the Church.
