The 360° Degree Leader is the first book I've read that talks to the one who is stuck "in the middle" or "at the bottom" so to speak. It gives direction to those with position of how to lead "down", but it also encourages those on the bottom on how to "lead up" and those in the middle to "lead down" and "lead across."
First of all, by purchasing The 360° Degree Leader, you are given the privilege of taking an online assessment regarding your own leadership skills, which will help you know which strategies you should work on the most.
Ever wished you were a leader, but felt you didn't have anyone to lead? Ever served under a poor leader and wondered if you should just quit?...or if you should go over their authority and "save the day"? This book is for you.
Ever felt that your character and leadership skills didn't matter because you weren't in an important place in the chain of command? Maxwell breathes life into those who serve in the middle, explaining how their influence is usually bigger than those at the top.
121 - Love, Sex, and Happily Ever After
Craig Groeschel does an excellent job of making a great case for a Christian marriage. This book would make an excellent addition to any marriage counseling. I've been married for a couple years, but still found this book great at opening up some discussions with my wife. Craig is an excellent writer, and this book just adds to the great work he's already put together. It's a perfect blend of story, guidance, and Bible. Great for any relationship or individual who's either thinking about dating, been married for 50 years, or anywhere in between. Great stuff, highly recommended.
120 - Dinner With a Perfect Stranger
Normally little thin books don't impress me. Normally I fly through them and toss them aside into my "donate" pile. Yet this one was different. The book offered a unique look into Christianity and will end up on my shelf for a while. Perhaps even merit another read. Nothing monumental, but not as easily dismissed as most books similar to this one. Worth reading through, but I'm not sure it's going to convince anyone who isn't already convinced of the merit of Christianity.
