I am a business professional that wants to do more than just succeed financially. Sure, I want to make money! But I want to do it with integrity. I want people to know I am honest and trustworthy. And I believe that doing the right thing can be good for business too. I am proud of my integrity.

Yes! And this book proves it.
I am an ethical and honest person but how can I get others at work to behave that way as well?

I always plan on getting home at a reasonable hour and I try to avoid weekend work but I just have so much to do I never seem to make it...it's OK though, my wife understands.
Wanna bet? You better not count on that if you want your relationship to last! Break the cycle. This book will help you take back control of your time and your life!
Do you really think God is interested in what I'm doing at work?
You better believe it! Every day, in every way and if you want to harness that kind of power in your work life - please, read this book!
This ground-breaking book dives into the difficult questions and provides practical counsel.
Since other books aren't written specifically for business professionals, they can only give you half the picture and leave it up to you to figure out the rest. They present the problems, but can't present the context. Therefore, they never actually explain how YOU can wrestle with the tough spiritual questions in YOUR life.
Given the timeless nature of the man's desire to understand the meaning of life, it's not surprising that there are a number of books that wrestle with the difficult spiritual questions. But few, if any, are written specifically for business professionals. I am a business professional and know how difficult it is to do the right thing in a world where I often feel surrounded by greed and corruption. - Why do bad things happen to good people?
- What happens when you die?
- Why does God allow bad people to succeed?
It doesn't matter what race or religion you are, these questions are tough to answer. And business professionals have their own version of these questions. People through the ages have asked many similar questions.
