Description: As Senior Executive Vice President of the Orlando Magic, Pat Williams is known throughout the sports world as a consummate promoter and a keen talent scout. His boundless imagination and zany antics have led his team to victory since their very first season. But Williams' leadership philosophy is untraditional, to say the least. Now, he shares that unique philosophy, which bucks conventional management wisdom and is founded instead upon the Scriptures, using Jesus Christ as a leadership model. Examining the paradoxes that made Christ an exceptional leader, he then offers fascinating and instructive examples that make those principles relevant today. Successful leadership is not a matter of simply maximizing profits, but of striving to make this world a better place, and Williams shows how the paradoxical approach is so much more powerful than traditional leadership based on common sense.

Description: The subtle seduction of power and riches has taken over corporate America.

WorldCom. Global Crossing. Tyco. Enron. What do all of these once ballyhooed but now reviled corporations have in common, besides bankruptcy and a passel of soon-to-be-indicted senior executives? They all share a thirst for quick profits at the expense of investors, employees, and the most basic of business ethics.

The Tao of Enron shows how the core values at Enron led inevitably to its implosion. By sketching out the stories of several of the principal players in this debacle, the authors show how pride, impatience, a lust for power, and the ability to mentally separate issues of faith from the practice of business joined forces to destroy one of America’s most admired "young" companies.

Authors Chris Seay and Chris Bryan examine the universal issues of faith we can learn from this Fortune 500 fallout. The hard-learned lessons can benefit not merely the boardroom, but also the living room. Anyone can fall prey to the same lust for power, possessions, and status that poisoned Enron.

Considering that in 1997 over 57 percent of Americans believed you sometimes have to bend the rules to get by in life (Barna Research), this book is necessary in helping us inspect our goals and beliefs and how they play out in our everyday lives. All of us must choose between two roads that stretch out before us––and all of us are "this close" to the dark side.

Description:

The business spotlight hit Ken Blanchard in the 1980s with the phenomenal success of The One-Minute Manager, co-authored with Spencer Johnson. While his reputation among secular professionals worldwide continues to grow, his heart is increasingly focused on a simple, powerful message: Lead like Jesus. To that end, he and longtime friend Phil Hodges co-founded the Center for FaithWalk Leadership and began teaching the "lead like Jesus" concepts around the world. Now they're expanding their reach into churches and organizations to reach tens of thousands of leaders who wouldn't otherwise be able to participate in a live event.

The study guide is an individually available part of the Lead Like Jesus kit.  Only one study guide is included in the initial kit, but churches or organizations can buy as many study guides as needed for their leadership groups.

There is plenty of room for writing as the concepts are explored via group and individual activities.

Description: Why are the most successful and advanced members of society often deemed to be the criminals? In a word -- Envy. The envious man finds superiority in others intolerable, and he wishes to level and equalize all things. Many sociologists and social scientists turn this hatred and resentment into “virtue” under the guise of “social science” by calling it a demand for fraternity and equality. In this concise volume, Rushdoony uncovers the larceny in the heart of man and its results: class warfare and a conflict society in which the rise of hostility and envy are seen as steps towards social progress, when in fact they lead to disaster. The political solutions posited lead to an inflationary economy and an overbearing state. This book is a must-read to gain a biblical understanding of the underlying tenets of this codified coveting and the only certain long-term cure.

Description: Business entrepreneurs have always played a key role in America’s financial growth. Now social entrepreneurs are also being recognized for their significant contributions. Management expert Peter Drucker insists that "social entrepreneurship…is as important as economic entrepreneurship. More important, perhaps. In the United States, we have a very healthy economy but a very sick society….Fortunately there are enough successes around so that we know it can be done—and also how to do it."

The "successes" featured in this book come from a variety of backgrounds and represent a spectrum of social and spiritual concerns. They are practical idealists who use modern tools and technology to share the age-old love of God with the disadvantaged—from at-risk kids to dysfunctional families to impoverished minorities to the homeless. They include social entrepreneurs such as:

· Ken Blanchard, best-selling author (over 13 million books in print) and international business consultant
· Elayne Bennett, founder of Best Friends and wife of former Secretary of Education William J. Bennett
· Bob Buford, best-selling author (over 200,000 books in print) and foremost authority on social entrepreneurs
· Juan Benitez, former Cuban refugee and president of Micron Technology, who now helps the poor around the world

Throughout this book, Oster and Hamel highlight practical principles that will help you use your resources, abilities, and influence to create positive social change and improve the world your grandchildren will inherit.
