The Conative Connection: Uncovering the Link Between Who You Are and How You Perform
by Kathy KolbeKolbe identifies four modes of action, which each individual has in varying amounts. You use each mode at least some of the time, but you probably use one or more primarily and avoid another. Are you predominantly a Fact Finder, careful to research a problem before responding? Or are you a Follow Thru, for whom systems are the answer? Perhaps you're a Quick Start, spontaneous and innovative in your solutions. Or an Implementor, relishing demonstration and tangible results. You don't have to change the way you are to improve your performance. Kolbe shows you how to predict what you and other people will and won't do.

by Hanha HobsonWhen we put on the full armor of God (Ephesians 6:10-18), our only offensive weapon is the sword of the Spirit, which is God's Word. The Confessions Project is a devotional and movement to help believers declare God's promises over their lives because speaking God's truth helps activate our faith. It brings results and answers because God Himself said that His Word would not return empty to Him. We live in a world where insecurity, doubt, and fear run wild. But God has given us the weapons in our arsenal to fight life's challenges. Instead of feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or scared, we can overcome any assault from the enemy with our speech for life and death lies in the power of the tongue (Proverbs 18:21). Providing you with 52 God-given promises to declare over your life, The Confessions Project will help you recognize your authority in Christ and access the Word that is alive and active, sharper than any double-edged sword, with the divine power to demolish strongholds.

The Confidence Effect: Every Woman's Guide to the Attitude That Attracts Success
by Grace KilleleaIn the twenty-first-century workplace, women are encouraged to step up, lean in, take charge, go for it . . . yet how much has actually changed regarding the makeup of leadership when it comes to adding women’s voices?

While developing the four Rs of Success--relationships, reputation, results, and resilience--women will learn how best to:• Build circles of influence• Seize opportunities they normally avoid• Leverage and promote their skills• Cultivate executive presence• Bounce back from setbacks• And moreYou’ve been encouraged to get in the game your entire life, yet you remain on the sidelines. Why? Become more confident in who you are and what you can do, and claim the success you deserve!

The Confidence Myth: Why Women Undervalue Their Skills, and How to Get Over It
by Helene LernerNot only do we need more female leaders at the top, but we need more women at all levels of business, government, and nonprofits to step up—there's no time to waste. The problem, says Helene Lerner, isn't so much that women lack confidence but that they misunderstand what confidence really is. True confidence isn't fearlessness; it's having the courage to jump in even when your knees are shaking. Any woman who waits until she feels 100 percent confident before offering a big idea or asking for a raise or promotion will never get anywhere. Drawing on her own and other female leaders' experiences, as well as on her survey of over 500 working women, Lerner lays out practical strategies for beating this confidence myth and overcoming obstacles like gender bias. The book features dozens of Confidence Sparks, simple but powerful exercises and techniques that can catapult anyone's career to the next level.
