Growing leadership cannot be left to a generic, one-size-fits-all approach. Clarity is needed to develop and teach effective leadership skills. Leaders can easily become distracted in today's technologically-laden, fast-paced environment. They can successfully inspire leadership skills in others by managing through the daily chaos of modern society and developing their own character and abilities. Leaders must take ownership of their time and their relationships, practically develop leadership skills within themselves and expand their character in the highest manner.

"Growing Leadership: Managing Developmental Chaos" provides clear instruction on how to preen through confusing, generic leadership models and establish serious development tools which will facilitate lasting, effective results and build deep commitment to the leadership development and growth process. Jackson's proven, consistent and energizing steps help obtain the most triumphant investment on a vital resource-a person's time.

Leadership is personal. Leadership is powerful. Leaders are those people who set the tone and the stage for the life many others live. Yet, leaders are also individuals with a set of internal principles. These principles establish the basis for the decisions that leaders make. The impact then of principles determines leadership. Principled Leadership; A Balancing Act for a Lifetime (Hereafter referred to as simply Principled Leadership) addresses the values generated through the principles of leadership. What values support positive leadership? How do you get them? Where do they come from? How can a person establish a foundation that can withstand the onslaught of life? These are the type of questions Principled Leadership discusses and answers. This is not a book about religion. However, it clearly establishes that the strongest foundation one can have is a foundation balanced on the values that are found through faith, belief and the spiritual awareness and wisdom gained while living in this physical world. These values, like wisdom and honesty, become foundational for building character, not mere off shoots or accidental leaning from life. Once a person begins the journey to Principled Leadership a lot of work is required. Much of the work is internal evaluation, reconciliation, forgiveness and change. However, there are many things to do that show the world the fruit of those changes and many ways to interact with others. This interaction can be both a blessing and a hard fought effort - depending on the strength of your values. Principled Leadership takes a step toward this by establishing these principles in and as a fundamental element of leadership. This does not mean we should elect politicians who only adhere to certain religious beliefs or that religious leaders should be our national leaders. It simply means we need to return to personal leadership character that is based on those values that are spiritually based and provide us the balance we need in order to effectively live all aspects of our life. The values we find that are inspired by God are positive in all undertakings. Following those values in our leadership development and active life can only yield enhanced and improved leadership performance. This performance is what we need to change the course of our nation's and our species current trajectory into the future. Principled Leadership is designed to discuss the balance needed between the physical reality of our life and the spiritual nature we experience as we embrace the power to be found in the principles we learn from God, and the values we derive from the those principles as we establish our foundation for effective leadership.

Are America's values crumbling? Can we hold back the flood of attacks on them that we see in the daily news, the political arena, and the entertainment world? "Surviving the Radicalization of America" asks these tough questions and offers helpful solutions. Author Glenn Jackson uses his perspective as a common American to help explain his views on why America has become polarized instead of centralized. Jackson believes a more balanced interpretation of America can be found by incorporating a variety of viewpoints. Divided into four sections--foundation, development, relational issues, and creating a future--"Surviving the Radicalization of America" is an informal conversation focused on finding a way to cope with today's challenges. Even though we have increased our knowledge in science, technology, and medicine, we still do not fully understand the human spirit. By discussing these significant issues, we can find a way through the confusion and chaos and learn to live a balanced, risk-managed life.
