This study, the first of its kind to take into account the knowledge and opinions of both academic and practitioner subject matter experts, employs a mixed method form of research. The qualitative results from phase one participants influence the quantitative data collected from phase two participants. Given that this is an inductive study, there are no specific hypotheses regarding which behaviors are considered most important to a spiritual leader. A list of 39 behaviors emerge which participants consider essential to a spiritual leader. The results of this study emphasize the importance of examining the opinions of academics as well as practitioners.
