Book Description
Every girl is a beautiful creation, uniquely equipped by God to do His work in the world. But as girls are growing, changing, and making choices about the kinds of lives they will lead, they are bombarded with conflicting messages about what it means to be a woman. The media says one thing, boys say another, and friends seem obsessed with whatever is newest and coolest. As a result, girls too often hand their decisions over to those least qualified to make them. Into the breach steps Elizabeth George, bestselling author and beloved Bible teacher. With wisdom, gentleness, and tremendous grace, she guides tween girls ages 8 to 12 through the most challenging decisions they face, teaching them to let God—not the world—define who they are. Discussing such topics as attitude, friendships, crushes, parents, school, and avoiding bad situations, Elizabeth helps girls see that the very best choice of all is a choice to live within God’s will. Perfect for individuals, small groups, and mentoring.

Creating Great Choices
Author: Jennifer Riel
Publisher: Harvard Business Press
ISBN: 1633692973
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 291
Book Description
"The rarest of business books that teaches decision makers how to think, not what to think." - Malcolm Gladwell When it comes to our hardest choices, it can seem as though making trade-offs is inevitable. But what about those crucial times when accepting the obvious trade-off just isn't good enough? What do we do when the choices in front of us don't get us what we need? Rather than choosing the least worst option, Creating Great Choices offers a model that guides you towards a new and superior answer... integrative thinking. First introduced by world-renowned strategic thinker Roger Martin in The Opposable Mind, integrative thinking is an approach to problem solving that uses opposing ideas as the basis for innovation. Now, in Creating Great Choices, Martin and his longtime thinking partner Jennifer Riel vividly illustrate how integrative thinking works, and how to do it. The book includes fresh stories of successful integrative thinkers that will demystify the process of creative problem solving, as well as practical tools and exercises to help readers engage with the ideas. And it lays out the authors' four-step methodology for creating great choices, which can be applied in virtually any context. The result is a replicable, thoughtful approach to finding a "third and better way" to make important choices in the face of unacceptable trade‐offs. Insightful and instructive, Creating Great Choices blends storytelling, theory, and hands-on advice to help any leader or manager facing a tough choice.

Making Good Choices

Publisher: Createspace Independent Pub
ISBN: 9781479119288
Category : Juvenile Nonfiction
Languages : en
Pages : 136
Book Description
Making Good Choices is a life guide for teens. The premise of Choices is that there are a number of life lessons which, if they are understood and acted on early in a students life, can have a profound positive impact. This book reinforces values and moral behavior. Choices draws a distinct line between good and bad, helping students to understand the long term consequences of the two. It explains the importance of roles and relationships between a teen and his parents, siblings, friends and teachers. Choices takes the various tools available to the average young student and helps him chart a course of success in life. Choices should be read before, as preparation for, a book like What Color is Your Parachute. The difference between this book and What Color is Your Parachute is that it concentrates on the root causes of failure and unhappiness and not just the end goal of a good paying job. There are many reasons why some of us are not ready to zero in on the color of our parachute. This book is for those average students who first need to find their humanity, empathy, sense of community and self worth before they go blazing into the world. This book is for the student whose potential is not the concern of any other book.
