Description: Two leadership experts. Eight powerful principles. One life-changing book.
In recent years the world has been rocked by catastrophic business failures. The problem isn’t so much obsolete factories, backward technology, complicated logistics, or an indifferent workforce. The problem is leaders who don’t follow the principles proven to build success.
In Trust Me: Developing a Leadership Style People Will Follow, two expert business leaders call today’s emerging leaders–including you–back to the basics. They focus on the timeless principles derived from the teaching of the greatest leader of all time. You’ll become a better leader as you rediscover the time-tested, positive principles that will work in any leadership situation–in a major corporation, a small business, a volunteer situation, or a church group…any context in which you are asked to lead.
Following the principles outlined in this book will enable you to develop trust in yourself, trust in other people, and trust within your team. The result: Healthy organizations that grow future leaders.
And it all starts with you.

Description: Self-interest, economic efficiency and private property rights are among the most basic assumptions of market economics. But can an economic theory built on these assumptions alone provide adequate insight into human nature, motivation and ultimate goals to guide our economic life? John Stapleford says no along with those economists who recognize the limits of their discipline. He insightfully shows us in detail how ethics are inextricably intertwined with economic life and analysis. Writing from a Christian ethical perspective, he interacts with seven standard introductory economics texts, exploring the moral challenges imbedded in various macro-, micro- and international economic theories and outlining a faithful response to them. Among the important ethical issues addressed are- possibilities and perils of economic growth
- the role of government in the economy
- the growth of work and loss of leisure
- lending and borrowing
- poverty and distributive justice
- environmental stewardship
- business and social responsibility
- legalized gambling
- the pornography industry
- debt relief for less developed countries
- the economics of immigration
- population control
Keyed to seven of the most widely used introductory economics texts--Gwartney, Stroup and Sobel; Mankiw; Mansfield and Behravesh; McConnell and Brue; Miller; Samuelson and Nordhaus; and Stiglitz--this book will be especially useful for introductory courses in economics.

Description: The Heart of an Executive chronicles the career of David, one of the best-known figures in the Bible, from his humble origins as a shepherd boy to his slaying of the giant Goliath, to his triumphant crowning success as king of Israel.
David's story is that of a career executive, and in it Richard D. Phillips sees reflected the trials and triumphs that mark our own lives in today's business world. Like any other executive, David's career came in recognizable stages: preparation, rise, achievement, and finally, the passing of the torch.
While following his career, the reader witnesses the fashioning of a leader, as David's heart is shaped by his faith in God, his love for his people, and his passion for real and lasting achievement. Through many trials and failures, David emerged as a leader who inspired others to achieve the impossible. Despite his own flaws and the venomous opposition of many, David remained true to God and his people, and through this one man an entire nation found its purpose and identity. This is precisely the kind of leader today's world needs, and Phillips amply demonstrates the relevance of David's reign for today's businessperson.
The lessons in The Heart of an Executive are clear, biblically based, and will challenge and equip men and women to raise their aspirations and heighten the impact of leadership.

Description: Far too many Christians believe that a vocation or calling from God only applies to those who are ministers or in church service. Living Life on Purpose debunks that myth and proclaims that God has a fulfilling life of meaning for everyone. These essays by key educators explore how you can hear from God, the difference between a career and a calling, and why doubt, dilemma, and even disenchantment are part of your purpose. Whether you are a business leader, restaurant employee, factory worker, engineer, retail clerk, or yes, even a pastor or seminary student, this collection will encourage, challenge, and motivate you to discover the joys of Living Life on Purpose. Contributors include: Bill Arnold, Burrell Dinkins, Maxie Dunnam, Ellsworth Kalas, Chris Kiesling, Steve Moore, and Sandra Richter; foreword by James Smith, Chair of the Board of Trustees, Asbury Theological Seminary

Description: John C. Maxwell offers lively stories about the foibles and successes of Lee Iacocca, Abraham Lincoln, Princess Diana, and Elizabeth Dole in The 21 Irrefutable Laws of Leadership. Readers can expect a well-crafted discussion that emphasizes the core attitudes and visions of leadership. Maxwell uses the same tell-it-like-it-is approach that he honed in the bestselling Developing the Leader Within You. For instance, when explaining "The Law of Influence," Maxwell states that "job titles don't have much value when it comes to leading. True leadership cannot be awarded, appointed or assigned. It comes only from influence and that can't be mandated." Even after Princess Diana was stripped of her title, Maxwell says she was still able to lead a global effort toward banning land mines because of her sophisticated ability to influence others. If readers are looking for a step-by-step formula, Maxwell's list of "laws" will probably seem too chatty and anecdote driven. There are no specific tips on what readers can do during the next workday to help them become stronger leaders. On the other hand, Maxwell's background as a pastor gives him an inspirational voice and a spiritual context to leadership that many business and church leaders appreciate. --Gail Hudson
