Each of us has but one life to live on this earth. What we do with it is our choice. Are we drifting through it as spectators, reacting to our circumstances when necessary and wondering just how we got to this point anyway? Or are we directing it, maximizing the joy and potential of every day, living with a purpose or mission in mind? Too many of us are doing the former - and our lives are slipping away one day at a time. But what if we treated life like the gift that it is? What if we lived each day as though it was part of a bigger picture, a plan?

Leadership isn't easy. It takes grit, courage, and vision, among other things, that can be hard to come by on your toughest days. When leaders and aspiring leaders seek out advice, they're often told to try harder. Dig deeper. Look in the mirror and own your natural-born strengths and fix any real or perceived career-limiting deficiencies. Frances Frei and Anne Morriss offer a different worldview. They argue that this popular leadership advice glosses over the most important thing you do as a leader: build others up. Leadership isn't about you.

Look around you. Artificial intelligence is no longer just a futuristic notion.

Twenty-first-century pioneer companies are already using AI to innovate and grow fast. The bottom line is this: Businesses that understand how to harness AI can surge ahead. Those that neglect it will fall behind. Which side are you on?

Every salesperson must endure many NOs in order to get to YES. Objections don't care or consider: who you are, what you sell, how you sell, or if you are new to sales or a veteran. For as long as salespeople have been asking buyers to make commitments, buyers have been throwing out objections. And, for as long as buyers have been saying no, salespeople have yearned for the secrets to getting past those NOs. Objections is a comprehensive and contemporary guide that engages your heart and mind.

Helpful and Challenging
n Vision Driven Leader, Michael Hyatt lays out the importance of vision to your organization and then lays out a process for how to create and implement a clear vision in your business or organization.
As a staff pastor in a large church, it is easy to focus exclusively on the next task. Often, these tasks can become silos. You will string one thing to the next and you will eventually arrive somewhere, or maybe you won’t. Who knows? This is an uninspiring picture but it tends to more or less be my reality.
Through Vision Driven Leader, I have seen the importance of envisioning my destination. In addition to this, I have had a path laid before me of how to craft and script my vision (the book focuses on writing your “vision script.”). The great things about all of a Michael Hyatt’s books persist here. It is a short read without nonsense and fluff. The audio book is right around 4.5 hours.It packs a punch and words aren’t wasted. Additionally, Hyatt expertly lays out a path for those who have no idea what they are doing. He did this for me in Free to Focus and Your World Class Executive Assistant and he continues the streak in this text. I not only know what I should do. I know HOW to do it. Hyatt’s conversational style and engaging anecdotes help this book strike balance between helpful and challenging!
You should read this book if you look at your organization and have a sinking feeling it could be better and that you could get it there. This book will help you pave the road to your vision and make you a more effective leader

Chose this title because my role in our company is shifting to “vision casting” as we start the new year. Whenever I read leadership books, I’m hoping to walk away with 3-5 “nuggets” - things that inspire and can be easily put in place.
Well, this book gave me 15+ nuggets!
