By integrating calling ("an external commission from God for others") into the heart of the life coaching model, master coach Tony Stoltzfus offers a solidly biblical framework for exploring purpose. You'll learn tools for discovering a person's innate design and unearthing the passions that motivate them, plus a powerful process for seeing how every experience in life─from suffering and loss to joy and success─fits into God's master plan of destiny preparation. A Leader's Life Purpose Handbook is filled with sample coaching dialogs, practical tips and over 60 formal discovery exercises, all formed in the crucible of a decade of coaching senior leaders and training professional coaches. It even offers a special set of tools for helping organizational leaders craft convergent destiny roles. And the companion Workbook makes it easy for coachees to work through selected exercises on their own as action steps. If you want to do biblically-grounded life purpose discovery with Christian leaders, this book is for you.

Ever wish you had a road map to follow to your God-given destiny? The Calling Journey is just such a map, revealing the common stages and transitions leaders go through on the pathway to their call. As you read what successful leaders from all walks of life experienced on the destiny road, you'll gain an amazing perspective on how God is leveraging everything in your own story to make his dream for you come true. Along the way, you'll learn how to identify key stages in your own journey and build a personal calling timeline. When you discover what God's agenda is for each stage, you can lean into what he is doing in you instead of fighting the process. Developed by a master leadership coach, the timeline model emerged from comparing the life stories of biblical characters to those of contemporary leaders. Through hundreds of coaching encounters, plus extensive interviews with Christian leaders in business, ministry, politics and other spheres, Tony discovered that God takes each of us through predictable stages of upward growth separated by "valleys" of adversity and inner formation. While we tend to view the difficult times in the valleys as failures or detours, Tony shows how they form a vital part of God's strategy for leadership development. Just as Joseph's repeated betrayal and elevation birthed the life message that is his greatest legacy ("You meant it for evil, but God meant it for good"), The Calling Journey shows how the Great Redeemer transforms times of heartache into the seedbed of a world-changing life. The Calling Journey depicts four stages and three valleys on an easy-to-understand graphical timeline. Dozens of personal stories (along with tales of historical and biblical travelers) bring the journey to life. Coupled with an innovative understanding of call as the unique way Jesus is incarnated in us by our story, this in-depth look at the purpose of life reveals how God truly is good all the time.

What really makes a good business leader? Do you have to be an extraordinarily charismatic hero with a larger than life personality before you can make things happen? What if you’re not? What are the practical and personal lessons of good leadership that will help ordinary managers get the results they want by leading their teams effectively? Living Leadership 2e has the answers. This insightful and motivating book will help you discover how to make real connections with people, and become an effective leader who makes things happen in the real world. Built on a unique four-year experiment working alongside real leaders in real businesses, Living Leadership explodes the myth of the charismatic, transformational leader, to show that real progress comes from the dramatically ordinary stuff of leadership. By observing business leaders in top companies on a day-to-day basis, the authors found out how these top managers really spent their time and how they really made an impact. They saw these leaders holding key discussions with their teams; watched them formulate strategies, plans and visions; observed their behaviours, ambitions and frustrations. What emerged was a powerful set of principles and proven advice for managers everywhere who want to develop their leadership skills. New to this edition: The content is refreshed by using different quotes and examples from the leaders who took part in the original research. Plus there will be updates throughout.

As New York Times bestselling author and leadership expert John C.

Readers will enjoy and benefit immensely from Maxwell’s highly relatable principles, such as:• The Best Leaders Are Listeners• Keep Your Mind on the Main Thing• Don’t Manage Your Time--Manage Your Life• Keep Learning to Keep Leading• People Quit People, Not Companies• And many more!With application exercises and a “Mentoring Moment” to accompany each chapter, The Leadership Handbook presents a road map for a path many may cross but few choose to follow.

The story of your life is being written down in heaven-and it is way better than how you remember it. Reading heaven's Book of You could change your life forever. Would you like a sneak peek? Heaven's Perspective takes you on a journey with seventeen real people whose most painful stories in life were rewritten by heaven into tales of glory, purpose and redemption. You'll identify deeply with the raw, authentic humanity in their personal stories. But when you read about the same events from heaven's book-prepare to be amazed, because heaven is powerful beyond imagining making all things well. There, time's limitations are abolished, so the mother whose son died as an infant is there to welcome him to eternity, and he never experiences a day without her. A little-known musician who thought his life was wasted discovers his songs are in constant rotation before the throne, and a man who fights to take off the masks he's hidden behind is rewarded for setting his family line free for generations. And you'll meet a Father who ensures our reward by sharing every uncompleted part of our destinies with those around us, so that every word of calling he utters will not return to him empty, but accomplish the purpose for which he sent it. It's a heaven-and a Jesus-that is far better than you ever imagined! Heaven's Perspective brings meaning to suffering and adversity by looking at it from a completely different angle: an unearthly one. Much of what we go through in life makes no sense purely in terms of the here and now. But add eternity to the mix, and what seemed random and purposeless finally makes sense. With heaven's eyes you'll spot the unseen connections that tie your destiny to those of others, and look behind the curtain to witness Father's lifelong plan to grow you up into him unfold step by unerring step. And you'll find answers to some of the most perplexing questions of life, like why a God almost never answers the question, "Why?" To live well on earth requires a hope set on heaven. Heaven's Perspective will introduce you in a whole new way to the true home of your heart and the happy ending that makes all things well.
