Zusammenfassung:Guided by the propositions of Zald and Ash (1966) and Gusfield (1966), this paper examines a Hebrew Christian organization in transition. First delineating and then applying their theoretical insights to the Hamilton Friends of Israel, the paper also argues that the leader's skillful employment of dual leadership functions is due to his symbolic value as a Jewish pastor. This observation points beyond the instrumental capacity of a leader who responds to organization needs by revealing an expressive factor which can determine his effectiveness in fulfilling the dual leadership functions and, consequently, his success at simultaneously heading a conservative and a radical group.
