Title: Love Leadership: The New Way to Lead in a Fear-Based World

Author: John Hope Bryant

Narrator: John Hope Bryant

Format: Unabridged

Length: 04:49:00

Language: English

Release date: 10-15-09

Publisher: Ascent Audio

Genres: Business & Economics, Management & Leadership

Summary:

In 1992, at the age of 26, John Hope Bryant was running a successful financial services firm when the Los Angeles riots broke out. After the violence and chaos subsided, Bryant saw that his community needed a 'hand up, not a handout,' so he founded Operation HOPE, an organization dedicated to helping low-wealth communities attain financial literacy empowerment. Today, Bryant is a sought-after speaker recognized for his leadership and service around the world.

In Love Leadership, Bryant chronicles his story of transformation from a teenager growing up in South Los Angeles to the leader of one of the most impressive antipoverty organizations in the country, and shares the unlikely ingredient for his leadership success: love. He shows leaders how to break away from the long-standing leadership styleone based on fear. Instead, he suggests that the best way to lead in both your professional and personal life is to figure out what you have to give others in a world obsessed with the question 'what do I get?'

Drawing on his remarkable success story and on interviews with love-based leaders such as Former President Bill Clinton, Bill George, and Andrew Young, Bryant outlines the five laws of love-based leadership:

Loss creates leaders: There can be no inner growth without the pain of legitimate suffering.

Fear fails: Leading through fear is antiquated and self-defeating, a crippling indulgence that we can no longer afford.

Love makes money: The expression of love in businesscreating long-term relationships with customers and employees based on caring for others and doing goodmakes everyone wealthy.

Vulnerability is power: When you open up, people open up to you. Real leaders know that vulnerability is not a weakness, but rather their greatest strength.

Giving is getting: Leaders give, followers take. Giving inspires loyalty, attracts good people, confers peace of mind, and lies at the core of true wealth.

Aimed at a new generation of leaders and extremely relevant in today's complex and fast-moving world, Love Leadership is a bold and contrarian guide to leadership and success.

Now they apply their research and insights to the challenges of 'toxic bosses.' Sooner or later, we all work for someone we can't stand. When that happens, some people quit, some suffer in silence, and others cope by sulking, obsessing, avoiding, or retaliating. But it's better to take control by applying the four-step process in this book:

Detect: Am I crazy or is my boss driving me crazy?

Detach: Accept that you can't change your boss, but you can take back your power.

Depersonalize: Learn to take your supervisor's behavior less personally.

Deal: Devise a plan to get what you need, manage your boss, and move your career forward.

Filled with concrete examples, this book will help readers take back their power from even the most challenging bad bosses- chronic critics, yellers, unconscious discriminators, control freaks, pathological liars, and more.

Title: Respectable Sins: Confronting the Sins We Tolerate

Author: Jerry Bridges

Narrator: John Haag

Format: Unabridged

Length: 06:16:00

Language: English

Release date: 10-01-09

Publisher: Christianaudio.com

Genres: Religion & Spirituality, Christianity

Summary:

As Christians, we believe that all sins are considered equal in God's eyes. Yet while evangelicals continue to decry the Big Ones--such as abortion, adultery, and violence--we often overlook more deceptive sins. It seems we have created a sliding scale where gossip, jealousy, and selfishness comfortably exist within the church. In short, some sins have simply become acceptable. Acclaimed author Jerry Bridges believes that just as culture has lost the concept of sin, the church faces the same danger. Throughout, Jerry encourages victory over personal sin through the gospel's transforming power. This release is perfect for readers who long to thoughtfully examine their lives and discover a deeper walk with God.

Summary:

"Based on the journalist-playwrights original article in The New Yorker, Betrayed is the story of three young Iraqi translators who risk everything for America's promise of freedom while their country collapses around them. The clarity of the writing, the urgency of the story being told give the play a sharp dramatic impact and a plain-spoken beauty. Painful human experience is presented here as just that. Nothing else is necessary to awaken sympathy, despair and awareness of a grave moral failure on the part of the American government. - New York Post

Recorded before a live audience at the Skirball Cultural Center, Los Angeles."
