Harnessing The Power Of Tension (Audio CD)
$29.99
The word tension comes from the Latin word tendere, which means “to stretch.” It’s not a bad thing to be stretched in our careers, our parenting, our ministries, or our leadership. Without tension, we become stagnant and stop growing. In fact, we might even say that tension is both inevitable and, in many cases, desirable in life and leadership.
In Harnessing the Power of Tension: Stretched but Not Broken, international leadership consultant Sam Chand examines tension as it arises in and between the arenas of business, church, and family. The presence of tension isn’t a flaw in you or a threat from others. It’s not a problem to solve, but a strain to be used. When you develop this perspective and you encounter tension, you’ll be less confused and feel less guilty because you understand that tension isn’t the result of your error or flaw. You’ll experience less pressure to figure everything out and less compulsion to resolve it quickly and completely.
When we accept tension as a reality of life, we gain confidence and mental clarity when we encounter it. Our focus isn’t on getting rid of tension, but using it to create something better than before. We don’t walk on eggshells, afraid to say the wrong thing. We learn when to speak up, when to ask questions, when to listen, and when to let things go. As we relax in the middle of tension, we see people and situations more clearly, and we invite our families and teams into the process of creatively using tension in life and leadership.

New Thinking New Future (Audio CD)
$29.99“The way leaders think matters-it matters a lot. The problem is that we almost universally make a colossal subconscious assumption that the way we think is the only possible way to consider our situations…. It’s like our minds are running antiquated software that’s slow, glitchy, and unproductive-but it’s all we’ve ever known. We need to upgrade the software in our heads!”-Sam Chand
With candor, humor, and personal stories, Sam peels back the layers of our assumptions to challenge us to think more deeply, more clearly, and more productively than ever before. He addresses fundamental topics all leaders instinctively address, including security, location, ownership, team, growth, and benchmarks of success. And he provides questions that leaders can ask themselves to develop New Thinking for a New Future.

Inspira – (Spanish)
$16.00“La cultura, no la vision o la estrategia, es el factor mas poderoso en cualquier organizacion. Ella determina la receptividad del personal y de los voluntarios a nuevas ideas, desata o inhibe la creatividad, construye o erosiona el entusiasmo, y crea un sentido de orgullo y profundo desaliento sobre trabajar o involucrarse. Finalmente, la cultura de una organizacion, particularmente en iglesias y organizaciones sin fines de lucro, pero tambien en cualquier organizacion, moldea la moral individual, el trabajo de equipo, la efectividad y los resultados.” — del capitulo uno
Con frecuencia, los lideres organizacionales confunden la cultura con la vision y la estrategia, pero son muy diferentes. La vision y la estrategia usualmente se enfocan en productos, servicios y resultados, pero la cultura es sobre las personas, el activo mas valioso de la organizacion. Inspira, Como crear una cultura organizacional poderosa lleva a descubrir los deficits en una culta organizacional e incluye los pasos necesarios para evaluar, corregir y cambiar la cultura organizacional deslucida a una vibrante e inspiracional, para que verdaderamente llene las necesidades de la organizacion. El prominente consultor de liderazgo Sam Chand describe las cinco categorias facilmente identificables de la cultura organizacional (Inspiradora, Aceptadora, Estancada, Desalentadora y Toxica), e incluye metodos diagnosticos que los lideres pueden usar para la identificar las fortalezas particulares y las necesidades de su cultura organizacional. Para ayudar en este proceso, tambien, hay una herramienta de evaluacion separada, gratuita, en linea (www.samchandculturesurvey.com). Cuando la cultura de la organizacion esta claramente identificada, los lideres pueden establecer una estrategia para aplicar las siete claves de la Cultura (control, Entendimiento, Liderazgo, Confianza, Sin temor, Responsiva y Ejecucion) que hara de su cultura una que estimule a las personas a ser y hacer lo mejor, y finalmente alcanzar sus metas mas altas.“Culture–not vision or strategy–is the most powerful factor in any organization. It determines the receptivity of staff and volunteers to new ideas, unleashes or dampens creativity, builds or erodes enthusiasm, and creates a sense of pride or deep discouragement about working or being involved there. Ultimately, the culture of an organization–particularly in churches and nonprofit organizations, but also in any organization–shapes individual morale, teamwork, e
