This little story was the beginning of something big: a book and a school textbook. Women and Kilimanjaro. Children and education. The mission of the book is to inspire women around the world to dream bigger and to do what is needed to fulfil their dreams.

Download or read book Vision Accomplished written by Marjie Sutton and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-07-29 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wherever there is a vision, there must be a visionary and implementer working together to bring it to life. Trouble is, this incredible partnership, vital to every organisation, can be fraught with many trials. If you are the visionary, you could mistakenly think the implementer that works with you doesn't listen, is there simply to follow your instructions, and takes pleasure in asking questions that are irritating and totally unnecessary. If you are the implementer, you could mistakenly think that the visionary doesn't listen, is wild and unrealistic about what is really needed to see the dream become reality, and takes pleasure in running roughshod over your carefully laid out plans. But is that the true picture? Author Marjie Sutton thinks not. So, in her book, Marjie goes on a quest to unveil the true picture and strengths on both sides of what has every potential to become an incredible partnership. Writing with incredible insight and clarity, Marjie shows how both can better understand each other's unique calling, gifting and perspective and work together more effectively. Without this understanding the business, organisation or church vision can become obstructed, distorted or never realised. Instead, in Vision Accomplished, chapter by chapter, visionaries and implementers will learn how to meld their strengths to get the job done and bring the vision to life with minimal bumps and casualties along the way.
