Abstract:
This study was an evaluation of key principles of leadership that are taught on the
internship programme of five select churches in Nairobi. The primary method of data
collection was by way of a questionnaire. This questionnaire consisted primarily of
close-ended questions, mainly due to the nature of the research. Its intention was to
determine the perspective of the respondents in regards to the principles of leadership
taught to them on their respective internships.
In order to derive this information adequately, the researcher developed three research
questions. He further raised twenty nine items that would clarify in detail the intention
of the research questions posed. It was faintly discovered that there were three key
principles of leadership which were taught on these internship programmes in general.
These were Planning, Delegation and Vision. However, it was also observed that
principles of leadership are not strongly taught on the internship programmes of these
five churches.
