You'll learn how to find success and fulfillment by leveraging your innate and inborn ability to calm the madness and control the chaos around you.

In the book, you'll uncover the fundamental processes underlying how we, as people and as leaders, put things together for a unified purpose. You'll discover why the Bible calls upon all of us to be leaders and how it can light our path to responsible self-leadership. Finally, you'll explore the application of biblical principles to take control of your organization through responsible action.

From deep insights into the nature of the universe--including why we put things together and take things apart--and the reason we (as people) are all here to the true difference between order and chaos, the author offers deep explanations of why people act the way they do. He outlines how to optimize your mindset for action, as opposed to theory, and set visions, prioritize change, and get team-based results in the real world.

PRAISE FOR BUILT TO BEAT CHAOS

"This book changes your thinking. It is the chapter missing from other leadership books! Gary reveals the biblical laws that govern leadership. Everyone wants to work for a mission-driven organization, but very few leaders are equipped to create purpose and lead with their values. This book shows you how AND explains why it works. It can help develop any corporate, government, religious, or nonprofit leader."
--ROBERT SPRAGUE, Ohio Treasurer of State

"Gary Harpst's Built to Beat Chaos brings hope to overworked, uber-stressed business leaders who have forgotten (or never experienced) the spiritual grounding essential to meaningful leadership. Gary's offering of practical examples of what happens when deep purpose and daily practice are aligned will benefit readers in many walks of life."
--KATHERINE FELL, PhD, President, University of Findlay

"I love the thesis of this book--that properly viewed, chaos can be our friend. Victims no more! Gary Harpst challenges conventional wisdom. His perspective is rooted in decades of inquiry, observation, practical experience, and systematic analysis. Your time invested in Built to Beat Chaos will be rewarded in lasting and important ways."
--JOHN D. BECKETT, Chairman, The Beckett Companies, and Author, Loving Monday and Mastering Monday

"Gary's ability to take simple biblical truths and apply them to business is outstanding. A great read and this will serve as an inspiration not only to me but also to our leadership team as we continue to challenge ourselves every day."
--CHUCK STRAWN, CEO, Redseal Measurement Group

"Gary Harpst provides timely insights based on his integration of faith and hard-earned business experience. His very personal story of success, failure, and learning embodies a faith-informed, innovative spirit. In an age defined by lean operations and tight budgets, his challenge is to view organizational leadership in terms of stewardship, and he provides a guide as we take up this challenge."
--BRENT C. SLEASMAN, PhD, President, Winebrenner Theological Seminary

"Gary integrates ancient principles with modern systems to show leaders how to engage the hearts and minds of their teams and live out their organization's purpose. The world needs this roadmap for conquering chaos right now."
--CARY HILL, Results Coach, Lead4Results, and former CEO of MESA, a 3-time Malcolm Baldrige National Quality Award recipient
