In a world that often appears to be spinning out of control, there has possibly never been a time when the need for true leaders has been more urgent than today.Leadership is certainly an enigma. Some believe that a leader is someone who has followers. Does that mean that the person with the most Twitter followers or Facebook fans is a true leader? Hardly. While followers may be part of the equation, leadership cannot be about followers alone; and it can't be just about winning the popular vote. In fact, some of the greatest leaders in history were the least popular.In The Business of Redemption, James Arthur Ray brings together his nearly 30 years of experience in leadership, entrepreneurship, performance, and business. He tracks his meteoric rises and epic falls, successes and failures, to suggest that leadership is about "paying the price." Leadership is earned through battles and risk, failures and successes, resilience and grit and resourcefulness; and the courage and commitment to get back up and never give up. True leaders take Absolute Responsibility when things go badly; and they give all the credit and praise when things go famously well. True leaders are fighting for a cause that's bigger than their own personal creature comforts, moods, and needs and that takes The Business of Redemption.

Description for Sales People

Forbes states 50 percent of the payroll jobs will be gone in 10 years or less and millions are flooding the entrepreneurial market with little to no business or leadership skills. AI's are replacing jobs right and left and will only continue to accelerate and that major disruption in both life and business necessitates personal and business leadership. Focuses on one of the primary leadership skills necessary, which is developing emotional intelligence and strength, along with the mental toughness, to get knocked down and get back up reboot and reinvent. Shows that reinventing oneself must be done to successfully lead in life and business. Addresses how leaders make quick decisions often based upon limited information and how analyzing to perfection in a disruptive world makes leaders obsolete. Emphasizes that leaders must make their own health: physically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually a leadership priority, along with their own happiness and fulfillment in a chaotic world. Explores how leadership is grounded in purpose and full of meaning and how true leaders live meaningful lives and are willing to pay the price for their purpose no matter how painful or difficult.
