Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: SHORTLISTED FOR THE 2021 SHAUGHNESSY COHEN PRIZE FOR POLITICAL WRITING In Can You Hear Me Now?, Celina Caesar-Chavannes digs deep into her childhood and her life as a young Black woman entrepreneur and politician, and shows us that effective and humane leaders grow as much from their mistakes and vulnerabilities as from their strengths. Celina Caesar-Chavannes, already a breaker of boundaries as a Black woman in business, got into politics because she wanted to make a bigger difference in the world. But when she became the first Black person elected to represent the federal riding of Whitby, Ontario, she hadn't really thought about the fact that Ottawa wasn't designed for someone like her. Celina soon found herself both making waves and breaking down, confronting at night, alone in her Ottawa apartment, all the painful beauty of her childhood and her troubled early adult life. She paid the price for speaking out about micro-aggressions and speaking up for her community and her riding, but she also felt exhilaration and empowerment. As she writes, "This is not your typical leadership book where the person is placed in a situation and miraculously comes up with the right response for the wicked problem. This is the story of me falling in love, at last, with who I am, and finding my voice in the unlikeliest of places." Both memoir and leadership book, Can You Hear Me Now? is a funny, self-aware, poignant, confessional and fierce look at how failing badly and screwing things up completely are truly more powerful lessons in how to conduct a life than extraordinary success. They build an utter honesty with yourself and others that allows you to say things nobody else dares to say--the necessary things about navigating the places that weren't built for you and holding firm to your principles. And, if you do that, you will help build a world where inclusion is real. Just as Celina is now trying to do, in all her brilliance and boldness.

Book excerpt: A foundational book for all adults to help you discover the skill of listening in three different areas of your life-helping your relationships, helping others, and helping yourself. Helping Your Relationships-Here the focus is on freedom from the bondage of legalism as it impacts relationships; as well as communication skills for moving through life with another imperfect person who needs the grace of God as much as you. Helping Others-You learn, in your role as a servant leader, how to shine a flashlight on the path into another's conflict-to help him discover his way back to God and people he cares for. You learn how to lead him to self-discovery and confession at the foot of the cross. You show him how to leave his burden there through the cleansing and forgiveness of the Lord. Helping Yourself-To experience relief from pain, as well as to enjoy the peace, joy, and love that come through a life of faith empowered by the grace of God.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bangladeshi villagers sharing cell phones helped build what is now a thriving company with more than $200 million in annual profits. But what is the lesson for the rest of the world? This is a question author Nicholas P. Sullivan addresses in his tale of a new kind of entrepreneur, Iqbal Quadir, the visionary and catalyst behind the creation of GrameenPhone in Bangladesh. GrameenPhone—a partnership between Norway's Telenor and Grameen Bank, co-winner of the 2006 Nobel Peace Prize—defines a new approach to building business opportunities in the developing world. You Can Hear Me Now offers a compelling account of what Sullivan calls the "external combustion engine"—a combination of forces that is sparking economic growth and lifting people out of poverty in countries long dominated by aid-dependent governments. The "engine" comprises three forces: information technology, imported by native entrepreneurs trained in the West, backed by foreign investors.

Book excerpt: If your prayers get no higher than the ceiling and you hunger for spiritual authenticity, this book is ideal. The author, a biblical scholar, discovered a big gap between what he found in the Bible and in his own experience. As he wrestled with how to hear God more clearly, he discovered how to listen more deeply - and where the blocks lay that halted his spiritual growth. This profound but accessible book is full of illuminating testimonies. It will help you apply the practice of listening prayer to decision-making in diverse circumstances such as parenting, the healing ministry and church leadership.
