The three books that make up the Leadership Series were written after my friend and co-laborer in the Gospel, Jeannette Haley, pointed out that there seemed to be much confusion surrounding godly leadership in the kingdom of God. The main reason for this confusion is that many Christians consider leadership according to the world's standards. Jesus even warned His followers in Matthew 20:24-27 that there is a vast difference between what the world considers to be greatness in leadership, and how the kingdom of God regards leadership that is marked with the excellence of greatness. As this book illustrates, true leaders in God's kingdom are not born; rather, they are forged. In order to effectively bring forth a leader, such individuals must learn to recognize that which hinders them and overcome these enemies. Obviously, a leader cannot lead others where he or she has not yet walked. The first book, Overcoming, addresses the true enemies of the cross of Christ, and reveals that they do not always come from without. Many such hindrances prove to be nothing more than moral deviations that are present in our character. Therefore, the first book identifies the true enemies of the Christian life and brings insight into what it takes to overcome each enemy. Great leaders also understand how authority and power are to influence and work in their lives. The second book, A Matter of Authority and Power reveals that real leaders recognize true authority and understand how power is to be used to carry out their responsibilities. This book will undo any misconceptions about these two subjects and will produce the sobriety that must be present when it comes to possessing the quality of true leadership in the kingdom of God. The final book, The Dynamics of True Leadership, follows the lives of the great leaders of the Bible. This book reveals the type of soul each leader possessed. It explains the choices these leaders made and how it impacted the kingdom of God.

Leadership in today's organizations is a tough business. Organizational leaders face a number of challenges as their jobs, and the world around them, become increasingly complex. Trends, such as organizational "delayering," rapid technological advances, and increased employee empowerment require that leaders adapt their techniques and styles of leadership to meet these new challenges. Consequently, there has been an explosion of interest in leadership in recent years as researchers and management educators struggle to understand the process of leadership development, how it operates, and what characteristics make effective leaders. Born of these questions, the 11th Annual Kravis-de Roulet Leadership Conference at Claremont McKenna College brought together an impressive slate of scholars whose theories, research, and cutting-edge techniques are now gathered together in this impressive volume. Each chapter asks and answers questions about the current state of the field while providing future direction for research to help bridge the gap between leadership researchers and leadership development practitioners. Notable topics include chapters on "e-leadership" and leadership within the "virtual" organization, exploring 360-degree feedback, the importance of "social capital," and a comprehensive analysis of the well-researched theory of Leader Member Exchange.

Build Network Marketing Leaders Faster! Much Faster! Entire three-book leadership series by Tom "Big Al" Schreiter and Keith Schreiter Book #1: How To Build Network Marketing Leaders Volume One: Step-by-Step Creation of MLM Professionals shows us how to locate the best leader candidates and how to groom them for leadership. Learn exactly what to say and exactly what to do to change their attitudes, their thinking, and their results. Why? Because leaders are everything in network marketing. These are the long-term producers that leverage our income. We have limited time. We can only work with a limited number of distributors. So, we must duplicate ourselves through our leaders. Ask yourself, “Do you want to be a leader? Or, do you want more leaders on your network marketing team?” Everyone says they want to have more leaders, but how? How does one find leaders? How does one create leaders? What are the things we need to teach ordinary distributors to do in order to for them become leaders? This plan doesn’t happen by accident. Instead of wishing and hoping for leaders, this book will give you the step-by-step activities to create leaders. Yes, there is a plan for building leaders and it is simple to follow. Discover how to give ordinary distributors a leadership test to determine if they are ready to enter the path of leadership. Then, learn how to start their learning process with the biggest leadership lesson of all: problems. Book #2: How To Build Network Marketing Leaders Volume Two: Activities and Lessons for MLM Leaders takes our potential leaders and expands on what they can do to grow their teams faster. No one is a "natural-born leader." Babies aren't given a manual on how to be an adult. Adulthood is learned from others. So how will we teach eager distributors to become leaders? By showing, participating, experiencing ... and of course, sharing stories. Yes, they could imitate us to become leaders, but not everyone is created the same, with the same set of skills or advantages. So, there must be common lessons everyone can learn for leadership. Inside this book, you will find many ways to change people's viewpoints, to change their beliefs, and to reprogram their actions. And when these three things change, the results will naturally change too. The earnings from developing one good leader could dwarf the monthly payout of almost any retirement plan. Book #3: Motivation. Action. Results. How Network Marketing Leaders Move Their Teams adds another 172 pages of step-by-step actions and campaigns to make our leaders the best they can be. Getting results from the team is the measurement of true leadership. Want to motivate your network marketing team into action? We don't have to be a screaming drill instructor to get the job done. Through contests, recognition, goal-setting, fill-out forms, personal development and other motivational techniques, we can do our part to create momentum in our teams. Our new distributors need motivation to overcome the negativity of their initial prospects. Our experienced distributors need motivation when they run out of prospects to talk to. Learn the motivational values and triggers our team members have, and learn to use them wisely. By balancing internal motivation and external motivation methods, we can be more effective motivators. We can teach our team exactly what to do. However, we must motivate them to do it. Enjoy this book of case studies and examples of exactly how to be a motivating team leader. We can't do all the work ourselves. We need help. Put your team into momentum. Order The Complete Three-Volume Network Marketing Leadership Series now!
