Success From Scratch
$15.99Add to cartDevelop High-Level Awareness and Mental Strategies to Advance into Massive Success!
There is an infinite amount of material out there on how to succeed, how to make money, how to trade stocks, how to grow your business, how to enhance your career, etc. Nowadays, we have no shortage of people teaching others how to be successful. The majority of people who read and take courses on how to material never actually succeed with it. That is a sad fact, because many people could have the beautiful and successful lives they want, but they are missing some key components that would get them results.
Success opportunities may be presenting themselves to you every day, but the problem is they are in a language in which you may not be fluent. The point of this book is to teach you how to become fluent in the language of success and opportunity, so you can step out and receive this new world you can now perceive with full clarity and understanding.
This book covers creating real success from scratch. It does not matter if you are at knowledge scratch, financial scratch, or entry level job scratch. It does not matter if you filed bankruptcy yesterday. In fact, being at scratch is perfectly okay because it has nothing to do with becoming successful. Where you are starting from means nothing, as long as you open your mind to the concepts I will be sharing with you to sculpt the right psychology to produce success and opportunity.

Rise And Fall Of H And H Bagels
$20.99Add to cartIn September, 2015 President Barack Obama informed The Forward, in a historic interview, of his shock at learning of the closing of his favorite NYC Bagel eatery, H&H Bagels, in January of 2012. While the President was shocked by the closing of the world’s most famous, and recognizable, bagel brand, what was truly shocking were the underlying facts and circumstances surrounding the closing. While most people knew H&H as the iconic, Upper West Side Bagel Shop where the lines rounded the block, where celebrities loved to frequent, and where one of the most popular Seinfeld television episodes was created, few people knew about the drama and decadence that existed behind the scenes of this NYC landmark.
The Rise and Fall of H&H Bagels takes you on a journey that starts with the fulfillment of the American Dream and ends in contested, five year Bankruptcy. This is the outrageous, true, story of a man who defied the odds and became an American legend, and then defied logic and the law by dismantling his beloved Empire.
The story of H&H Bagels is not only the story of the rise and fall of a thriving American business, it is a story of intrigue, economics, corruption, and resiliency, as told, with humor, from the perspective of the one man who lived through it all- its National Business Manager and right hand to the man at the top of the H&H Empire, Helmer Toro.

Poder Del Otro – (Spanish)
$14.99Add to cartEl experto en psicologia del liderazgo y autor best seller de Integridad, Necessary Endings, y Limites para lideres identifica el ingrediente critico para el bienestar personal y profesional. La mayor parte de liderazgo se enfoca en ayudar a lideres a desarrollar sus capacidades y conocimientos y cerrar las brechas en el desempeno. Esto es necesario, pero no suficiente. Utilizando evidencia de neurociencia y su trabajo con lideres, el doctor Henry Cloud demuestra que los mejores lideres se basan en otro recurso vital: relaciones personales y profesionales que potencian el crecimiento y les ayuda a superar los limites actuales. La sabiduria popular sugiere que no debemos permitir que otras personas tengan poder sobre nosotros, pero la realidad es que lo hacen, para bien o para mal. Piensa en el jefe que te menosprecia mediante comentarios cortantes versus uno que te reta a superarte. O el colega que siempre busca el protagonismo versus el que te da la confianza para terminar un proyecto dificil. O el conyuge que es honesto y te apoya versus el que se resiente con tu exito. No importa cuan talentosos, inteligentes, o experimentados son los grandes lideres, todos comparten algo en comun: el poder de otros en sus vidas. Combinando estudios de caso cautivadores, resultados convincentes de investigacion cerebral vanguardista, y ejemplos de su practica de consultoria, el doctor Cloud argumenta que no importa si eres miembro de la milicia o un ejecutivo corporativo, el rendimiento sobresaliente depende de tener el tipo correcto de conexiones para potenciar el crecimiento personal y minimizar las asociaciones toxicas y sus efectos. Al presentar un modelo dinamico del impacto que estos distintos tipos de conexiones producen, el doctor Cloud muestra a los lectores como obtener mas de si mismos basandose en la fuerza y la pericia de otras personas. No puedes elejir si otros tienen o no poder en tu vida, pero puedes elegir que tipo de relaciones deseas.

Steward Leadership In The Nonprofit Organization
$25.99Add to cartMost approaches to nonprofit organizational leadership are borrowed from the for-profit sector. But these models are often inadequate to address the issues nonprofit leaders face. We need a new framework for nonprofit management that is rooted in historical precedent and biblical principles yet is also appropriate for the nonprofit context. Nonprofit consultant and researcher Kent Wilson presents a comprehensive model for steward leadership, in which leaders act as stewards or trustees, never as owners. Scripture and history give concrete examples of stewards who manage resources on behalf of others for the good of others. Wilson applies this classical understanding of the steward to modern organizational management, defining and developing steward leadership as an alternative to its cousin, servant leadership. Steward leadership offers great hope for the transformation and effectiveness of nonprofit leadership for stakeholders, board members, executive directors and staff members. Designed by nonprofit leaders for nonprofit leaders, this fresh approach to leadership gives you a new focus to lead your organization with excellence.

Be Mean About The Vision
$19.99Add to cartAlmost every organization has a vision. Few ever accomplish it. Even after short-term success in it, fewer stay true to it over time. Be Mean About the Vision is about regaining or sustaining the trajectory of the vision over time. It’s about staying true to the vision. Lovejoy explains that this requires understanding the importance of vision, developing a vision we’re willing to die for, and keeping the vision from being compromised or even hijacked.
Though many books have been written on the subject of developing mission or vision statements, there have been few written on how to sustain or protect the vision over time. Shawn has dealt with hundreds of leaders in ministry and has seen countless struggle with keeping everyone on board with the mission and how to align the rest of the organization with the vision. Shawn Lovejoy walks the church leader through the experiences that have taught him to Be Mean, and shows us a strategy of Relentlessly Pursing What Matters.

Business Ethics In Biblical Perspective
$60.00Add to cart21 Chapters
Additional Info
The world of business is fraught with ethical challenges. Some of these are relatively straightforward, but others are complicated and require careful reflection. While there are numerous theories to help people navigate these dilemmas, the goal of this book is to provide a comprehensive biblical perspective on contemporary issues in areas such as consumer behavior, management, accounting and marketing. In Business Ethics in Biblical Perspective, Michael E. Cafferky explores the biblical resources for moral guidance and ethical consideration.

Instead of merely listening to lectures–they work on strategic plans and action projects tied to key objectives. Learning is reinforced and ROI is optimized. For companies ready to embrace what it means to be a learning organization, to welcome the CLO to the C-Suite, to tightly and continuously weave strategy and learning into the fabric of their businesses, the opportunities are limitless. Complete with practical guidelines and illuminating case studies, this pioneering book puts them on the path to long-term success.

Legacy Journey
$31.99Add to cartWhat does the Bible really say about money? About wealth? How much does God expect you to give to others? How does wealth affect your friendships, marriage, and children? How much is “enough”?
There’s a lot of bad information in our culture today about wealth-and the wealthy. Worse, there’s a growing backlash in America against our most successful neighbors, but why? To many, wealth is seen as the natural result of hard work and wise money management. To others, wealth is viewed as the ultimate, inexcusable sin. This has left a lot of godly men and women honestly confused about what to do with the resources God’s put in their hands. God’s ways of handling money caused them to build wealth, but then they’re left feeling guilty about it. Is this what God had in mind?
In The Legacy Journey, New York Times bestselling author Dave Ramsey takes you deep into God’s Word, revealing His perspective on wealth, your personal and family legacy, and how He wants to use you to further His kingdom work around the world. You can truly live-and leave-a legacy. The journey starts today.

1 Plus 12
$24.99Add to cartVisionary Leadership. Many people talk about it. Some have written about it. A few have been called visionary leaders. But only one man embodied its full meaning-Jesus Christ, the Son of God. Crucified and risen over 2,000 years ago, his visionary leadership continues to draw multitudes of followers today. Most writings about Jesus focus on what he did-proclaim the kingdom of God-and why-to save the world from its sin-but have neglected how he did it. How did his vision for establishing the Christian faith become so successful? How has Christianity lasted longer and grown larger than any other organization in history? In his ground breaking work “One Plus Twelve,” Lee Bartolomei delves into the how of Christianity through a detailed examination of who Jesus Christ is and his simple, yet multi-layered vision for making disciples. Bartolomei then shows how any organization-business, non-profit, religious, and more-can become successful and enduring in just three short years! Bartolomei shows you how to:
* Establish core ideology, values, and purpose that make up a vision
* Find and develop like-minded leadership who can carry out a vision
* Confront the brutal facts that hinder a vision
* Develop a culture of discipline to continue a vision …and much more! -
Redefining Operational Excellence
$22.99Add to cartThe old definition of operational excellence is a relic. Our world is too complex, too interconnected, and too fast-moving for organizations to achieve dramatic results simply by eliminating waste and increasing standardization.

Operational excellence is about finding money and performance boosts in areas businesses don’t normally look. Redefining Operational Excellence covers it all–processes, people, and operations–and shares specific strategies to: ? Drive innovation and collaboration ? Engage customers ?

Additional Info
Kingdom leadership does not begin and end at the church door. Christians are called to conduct leadership in government, commerce, schools, neighborhoods, families, para-church ministries and a myriad other contexts. God has given us many gifts, and our responsibility is to be stewards of those gifts, and use them to do the King’s work. In that context, this comprehensive text explores key facets of leadership from a Christian worldview so as to equip people to conduct leadership more authentically than would be possible under alternative paradigms. The book begins with the seldom considered theological foundations of leadership while also tracing the historic roots of management, organization and leadership theories. All of this leads to a robust discussion of five essential challenges and practices–communication, negotiation, decision-making, financial stewardship and personal development. The combined efforts of these experts in the field provide a practical theology of leadership from a Christian worldview for emerging and established leaders. Here is the foundation needed for those who want to conduct leadership in a manner consistent with their faith in both religious and nonreligious organizational contexts. -

10. Making A DifferenceAdditional Info
The church today faces a leadership crisis, what Richard Goossen and R. Paul Stevens call an “entrepreneurial black hole.” Churches are not seeking out the skills and talents of the entrepreneurs in their midst, and consequently entrepreneurs are disengaging from church life. The result is that Christian entrepreneurial leaders are not being equipped to aid the mission of the church and impact their communities for the sake of Gods kingdom. As founder and co-chairperson, respectively, of the Entrepreneurial Leadership Organization, Goossen and Stevens bring years of teaching and training experience to tackle this problem. Their timely and informative book develops a Christian model of entrepreneurship–rooted in a biblical worldview and a theology of calling–in order to overcome the entrepreneur-church dichotomy. Entrepreneurial Leadership addresses both the “how-come” and the “how-to,” not only grounding the entrepreneurial calling in its proper source in the triune God but also providing practical guides for how to be an effective leader. This book is not merely for those in business. It is for entrepreneurial leaders in every context and in any organization. Both theologically rooted and practically oriented, Goossen and Stevens have written what should prove to be the essential resource for Christian entrepreneurial leadership training. -
Jumpstart Your Leadership

Are you a leader? Would like to be a better leader? Would you like to be a leader in the future? Then this book is for you. In this book Shawn Doyle will show you the tools tips and techniques for becoming the kind of leader that other people want to follow.
Jumpstart Your Leadership will share with you the 10 key principles of leveraging your leadership.
Mission and vision- the important and compelling reasons why every organization large and small needs to have a mission and vision statement in order to lead effectively.
Strategic planning- strategic planning is absolutely critical to the long-term health of an organization. However in many cases leaders are not skilled at planning short, mid-term and long-term. Shawn shows them specifically how to plan and think strategically about the future which is a core leadership competency.
Hiring- hiring in many organizations is done very poorly, haphazardly and the track record of success is appalling. Shawn shows leaders how to interview and hire people effectively and shares a shocking concept about hiring people that they have probably never heard.
Communication- in many organizations leaders think that they are communicating effectively-but they would be wrong. The reality is most leaders think they’re communicating effectively but when employees are asked they say they don’t feel “in the loop” or that the communication is not effective in any way. So why is there two different versions of effective communication? This chapter will unlock the keys to effectively communicating in a leadership role.
Motivation- one of the biggest questions that Shawn gets in the classroom around the country is how can leaders motivate their employees? In this chapter he shares the inside secrets for getting the team motivated and only high levels of morale and team spirit.
Reward- too many times in too many organizations high-performing employees feel underappreciated overworked and not rewarded. In this chapter Shawn shares with them many of the myths about reward and how they can be shattered. He also shares the key strategies for rewarding people in order to impact of rewards and to increase people’s perception of their rewards.
Accountability- far too many times managers are reluctant to hold employees accountable for the results of their work. In this section Shawn shares the key tools and techniques for holding people accountable

Derailed : Five Lessons Learned From Catastrophic Failures Of Leadership
$18.99Add to cartWhat causes a leader to fail? What can we learn from those who have fallen? How do we avoid failure of our own?
These are just a few of the questions answered in Derailed: 5 Lessons Learned from Catastrophic Failures of Leadership, a book for leaders and aspiring leaders of all levels by Tim Irwin, Ph.D. Derailed chronicles the collapse of six high-profile CEOs, the factors that drove their downfalls, and the lessons that we can learn to stay on track and avoid derailing our own lives and careers.
The story of the fallen CEO has become a cultural fixture: veering off course with the force of a train careening off its tracks, leaving fiery wreckage and devastating injury throughout the organization. These executives are often the smartest and most respected individuals in their industries, with glittering resumes and histories of successful leadership. Yet they astonish us by driving the train dramatically off course, blinded by unchecked power and arrogance.
Dr. Tim Irwin believes that these leaders suffer from failures of character that are common to each of us–even the most capable individuals. Deficits in authenticity, humility, self-management, and courage become more dangerous as we take on more leadership, and can cause us to ignore glaring signals that might otherwise save us from catastrophic demise. Derailed profiles the collapse of six high-profile CEOs (Robert Nardelli – Home Depot, Carly Fiorina – HP, Durk Jager – Proctor and Gamble, Steven Heyer – Starwood Hotels, Frank Raines – Fannie Mae, Dick Fuld – Lehman Brothers) and the factors that drove their downfalls, finding that derailment actually happens long before the crash and can be avoided. Derailed explains the character qualities that are essential for successful leadership and how to cultivate them so that we can avoid being derailed.
