Book excerpt: What if I told you that you were only one step away from unlocking new levels of maturity and growth in your church? The myth of the silver bullet still exists because we desperately want it to. We all prefer quick fixes and bandage solutions to the long, hard, slow work that produces real change. So the moment we learn about a new ministry or strategy and see its effect in another church, we run to implement it in our own. Unfortunately, this impulse is usually met by opposition, skepticism, and ultimately, rejection. What if the solution isn't a new model or a complicated strategy, but a shift in perspective? What if you could keep your church's current vision, values, and model, and simply make a few micro-shifts...leading to macro-changes? This book explores five micro-shifts that have the potential to produce macro-changes in your church. As you read, you will discover how to integrate these micro-shifts into the life of your church, starting with the way you disciple. You will finish by developing a plan to structure, communicate, and evaluate these changes to ensure that they take root and pave the way for lasting change and kingdom impact.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Building the Foundation for the Smart Enterprise Business enterprises must capitalize on market opportunities, provide current customers with exemplary service, develop new products, control costs and reduce lead-times. One of the key business strategies to achieve these objectives is to develop a smart enterprise that changes information access and business response from weeks and days to hours and minutes. The foundational systems must provide accurate data if information is to be up-loaded into analytics to achieve decision support capability. These include ERP, Supply Chain, Engineering, CRM and Distribution systems that can be positioned to perform greater intelligence gathering and processing. Building the intelligent enterprise requires business systems capable of providing a stream of viable data to analytics. Analytics use the data gathered to produce the intelligence needed to everyone within the value chain. The Pathway to Adaptability was written as a tool to evaluate the capability of the current systems to support the adaptive enterprise and discusses ways to fix the broken components. Pathway to Adaptability is divided into core components. • The Lean concepts are put into executive terms and applied to governance. Creating the foundation for the intelligent enterprise starts with the Board of Directors and Executive management. They control the policies and strategies that drive the actions of the business. The board establishes the operating principles including those affecting employees. These latter policies determine how the employees will interact on issues such as flexibility, innovation and the application of Lean principles. • Systems concepts are applied to enterprise business and software systems. These concepts establish the foundation for the integrated convergence of markets, systems, processes, and products. • The eight-step approach builds on the Lean and Enterprise Information structures to summarize the process any company must travel to build adaptability. This book is must reading for those who need to understand how to build an adaptive, intelligent enterprise. One of the criteria was to keep it short by giving the readers credit for comprehension. The result is a fast read that summarizes a significant amount of relevant information. To order: Pathwaytoadaptability.com

Download or read book Leadership in American Politics written by Jeffery A. Jenkins and published by University Press of Kansas. This book was released on 2018-01-15 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the polarized governing environment of American politics today, the problem of leadership becomes ever more pressing and ever more vexed. What defines leadership, what determines its importance and effectiveness, and how does it differ from one sphere of influence to another: these are the questions Leadership in American Politics addresses in an effort to clarify the causes and consequences of the actions that public leaders take. The authors—prominent scholars from the major subfields of American politics—discuss the form and content of leadership in their areas of expertise across the spectrum of American government: the executive, legislative, and judicial branches; political parties; interest groups; bureaucracies; the states; and foreign policymaking. Combining historical, theoretical, and empirical approaches, their essays evaluate the constraints, opportunities, and influence of leadership in each area, as well as the challenges of bridging different realms. At a time when understanding the nature and limits of leadership is more important than ever, this volume lays the groundwork for the systematic study of leadership within and across American political institutions.
