Become a next generation leader—rich in emotional and social intelligence and orchestrating outstanding collaborative results—by mastering these eight status quo-shattering paradoxes.

The Eight Paradoxes of Great Leadership unpacks the fresh strategies and new mindset required today from a next generation leader.  

Author Dr. Tim Elmore helps leaders of all kinds navigate increasingly complex, rapidly changing environments, as well as manage teams who bring a range of new demands and expectations to the workplace that haven’t been seen even one generation prior.

After working alongside John C. Maxwell for twenty years, Tim offers counter-intuitive paradoxes that, when practiced, enable today’s leader to differentiate themselves and better connect with their team and customers. The book furnishes ideas that equip leaders to inspire team members in a way a paycheck never could. 

Having trained hundreds of thousands of young professionals to develop into leaders—Dr. Elmore shares the secrets of next generation leaders who have practiced the unique paradoxes outlined in this book and inspired their team members in a way that a paycheck never could. 

In The Eight Paradoxes of Great Leadership, readers will: 

Learn how to inspire and connect with the next generation of workers as they transform the workforce.

Generation Z has entered the workforce and are challenging leaders in ways they have never experienced before.  Gen Zers often bring little work experience following college graduation, with parents encouraging them to focus on academics. Plus, having grown up on screens, they frequently bring lower levels of emotional intelligence than previous youth generations. This can be troublesome, as supervisors may experience a new job candidate who is overconfident, maybe even cocky, yet lacks the interpersonal skills to receive tough feedback. Or who is fragile and often walks away from conflict. These two realities combined provide management troubles never seen before.

 Today, 4 in 5 hiring managers say Generation Z is the most difficult population to manage. Almost one in three avoid hiring them altogether. We cannot walk away from this challenge as these young teammates represent the future. While the boss has visibility on the past, they have visibility on the future. This resource, The Future Begins with Z, offers nine strategies to lead Generation Z as they upset the workplace. Some of those strategies involve:

If we lead them well, we’ll find young professionals often enter their careers with a greater insight into social media and how to monetize it; they seem to understand what young consumers want and they possess deeper intuition on where culture is going.  They are not tied to expectations for how work is done and are more open to new ideas.  To succeed, today’s leaders will need to listen a little more and to coach a little more than we once did. The future is in our hands. Let’s make the very most of it.

Informative, challenging and often humorous, this work explores mentoring the basic types of children and provides real-life insights on how to help them reach their full potential. Whether you have a driver, a diplomat, or a dreamer, you need to give your child permission to dream big and to dream right. Nurturing the Leader Within Your Child provides the tools for parents who want more than average for their children and who seek to inspire the pursuit of vision larger than they are.

We all face critical forks in the road-marriage, the death of a loved one, the birth of a child, or a personal health crisis. How are we to pray at these junctures? Perhaps our instinct is to send up a quick "911" prayer, but authors John Hull and Tim Elmore demonstrate how by praying the right prayer at the right time, we can see the incredible impact of what God can do.

Scripture offers countless examples of men and women who prayed strategically and saw results. Remember Solomon''s prayer for wisdom? He received it-and wealth beyond his imagination as well. And how about Hannah''s desire for a child? God honored her prayer; her son Samuel became the greatest judge in Israel''s history. Pivotal Praying uses these examples and others to illustrate the power of effective-and ineffective-praying. For those seeking to enlarge their prayer vision and alter their circumstances for God''s glory, Pivotal Praying is an ideal resource.
