In today's competitive landscape, brains alone won't get you very far. Truly successful students and young professionals live according to God's plan, and they also exhibit skills that make them really stand out. They honor God, communicate well, dress and act professionally, solve problems, and seem to be natural leaders. If you're wondering how you can tap into God's power and acquire these important leadership and soft skills, this book is for you.
Author Cary J. Green, PhD, draws upon years of teaching and mentoring students in college and Sunday School to show you how to thrive in your education, career, and life. Green expands his solid advice contained in "Leadership and Soft Skills for Students: Empowered to Succeed in High School, College, and Beyond," and adds nearly 190 scriptural references and Biblical principles to deepen your Christian faith and enhance your professional growth through application of the three Rs: Readiness, Relationships, and Results. Readiness teaches you self-awareness. Relationships teaches you to communicate effectively and connect with others in your personal and professional life. Results teaches you to be future-oriented, solve problems, and to set and achieve God-given goals.
Whether you're in high school, college, or graduate school, or are beginning your career, the scriptural references and Biblical principles, advice, and practical exercises contained in this book will empower you to succeed in whatever God calls you to do.
"Christian parents will appreciate the author's consistent use of quotes from Scripture and basic, faith-based advice"
"A well-executed self-help book for Christian teens."
