The purpose of this study was to understand the challenges encountered by Christian business leader from suburban churches who are committed to inter-cultural, inter-denominational, transformational urban missions. This study utilized a qualitative design using semi-structured interviews with eight business leaders from suburban Presbyterian churches. The findings of the study were that these business leaders are to pay careful attention to several important principles of inter-cultural leadership in collaborating for transformational development. The first conclusion regarding leadership roles was that suburban business leaders play very significant and changing roles in both inter-cultural and homogenous partnerships. The second conclusion regarding cultural intelligence was that business leaders realize the need to develop a deeper understanding of their partners from diverse cultures. The third conclusion regarding the politics of power was that business leaders have to negotiate with others from both the urban communities, as well as the centralized powers within their own suburban congregations. The fourth conclusion regarding mutual transformation was that business leaders realized that true change in the urban communities is directly correlated to true change within their own suburban communities.
