Preview:
 
The ONE Thing by Gary Keller and Jay Papasan is a business-centered, self-help book about finding a more narrow focus in life. Keller’s business life was busy and cluttered until he came to the realization that, by stepping down from his position as chief executive officer and focusing on building the company through a concentrated task, he could facilitate stronger growth than what he created by being involved in many different tasks. Just as small dominoes can topple larger dominoes, big achievements can be gained through a series of apparently minor actions that build momentum over time.
 
A narrow focus on one product is evident in many of the most successful companies, including Apple and Intel. Some of the most successful people embarked on their path to success as the result of one personal connection. They also often have shared a single-minded focus on one subject or passion, like a sport or country...

    Discover the tools of leadership to revolutionize your workplace. 
Tim Stevens traveled an alternative road—leaving high school and immediately joining a national non-profit organization. He rose quickly through the ranks of leadership, but nine years later left it all behind to help an upstart church get its footing. During the 20 years Stevens served as Executive Pastor at Granger Community Church near South Bend, Indiana, the ministry grew from a congregation of 300 to more than 5,000; from a staff of five to more than 130; with a preschool, restaurant, three campuses and more than 1,800 new churches planted in southern India. 
Leaders learn by leading. Stevens knows that creating a healthy and successful organization requires throwing out the conventional instruction manual and writing one that balances practical lessons, spiritual truths, and twenty-first century realities—exactly what you will find in Fairness Is Overrated. 
Stevens, now an executive with the Vanderbloemen Search Group, takes his lifetime of service and dispenses with conventional wisdom. Short, powerful chapters end with actionable discussion questions. Four pillars hold up every successful leader: Be a person of integrity. Identify the right people around you. Build a great culture. Lead through crisis. 
This is a manual of doing, not talking. No fluff, no stale inspirational platitudes. It’s time to move past planning and kick-start Monday into action. 
Reflection questions are included in the audiobook companion PDF download.

    It has never been more apparent just how volatile, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous (VUCA) the world is. With all the adversity and challenge we face in today’s world, leaders need to cultivate more inner resilience and learn to lead in a new way – a way that focuses on relational authority rather than positional authority. Resilience and relational authority (AKA – bringing out the best in everyone around us) require winning our inner game of leadership much more than our outer game. Unshakeable Influence provides hands-on and insightful tips for recognizing, responding to, and optimizing everything going on inside of us. The outside world is fickle, at best. When we have an unshakeable inner game as leaders, the outer game flows much more easily.Through exhilarating, relatable, and entertaining stories about motorcycle racing and leadership, Unshakeable Influence explores and examines what mastering the Inner Game of Leadership is, what it looks like, and how it enables leaders and organizations to not only tolerate VUCA, but truly thrive through VUCA.
