Instead, they make the case for going on offense through better service, stronger systems, harder work, innMakovation, generosity, and a joyful willingness to build.

Topics include: When competition becomes a call to action Why Christian business owners should avoid the victim mindset How to “go to war” in business without becoming bitter Why innovation beats defensiveness The value of giving away knowledge and building trust How competition can make your team and business stronger Why joy matters when facing pressure, conflict, and hard work A Brit And A Yank Talk Business is a conversation between Stuart Amidon of Page50 Marketing & Media and Tom Caldicott of Knox Thomas about business, leadership, work, and faith from both sides of the Atlantic.
