Fear Of Flying
$5.99
Harrison House is proud to release the first three episodes of the new children’s chapter book series, Young Eagles Armor Academy. The story takes place at a training camp for young eagles as they learn how to soar and someday “earn their wings.” These illustrated stories are both entertaining and educational. Each book in the series is based on 1 of the 9 core virtues that an eagle must have to be a true master of the skies. Plus, the story elements are based upon the actual traits that science tells us about this unique bird.
Young readers will identify with the colorful main characters, cousins Harpie and Flap, who are proud to follow in their parents’ footsteps at the academy. Then there is Will, the bird with a king-size attitude. They are joined by the zany and inventive Beakster, who is always getting into the most hilarious predicaments. The training takes place in an area known as Halo Cliffs where the cadets learn from the majestic leaders: Commander Goldie and Commander Baldie. These exciting books come from authors Hugo and Michelle Montes, known nationwide for their incredible children’s music, stories and ministry.
Fear of Flying takes place on opening day of the academy training. Flap is excited to begin, but has a secret that no one knows – He is afraid of flying. How will Flap tell everyone? What if they laugh at him? How can he ever hope to soar with the big eagles if he’s afraid to leave the ground? His fear is finally overcome by his love for a friend, showing that true love casts out fear.

Great By Choice
$29.99Add to cartThe new question
Ten years after the worldwide bestseller Good to Great, Jim Collins returns with another groundbreaking work, this time to ask: Why do some companies thrive in uncertainty, even chaos, and others do not? Based on nine years of research, buttressed by rigorous analysis and infused with engaging stories, Collins and his colleague, Morten Hansen, enumerate the principles for building a truly great enterprise in unpredictable, tumultuous, and fast-moving times.The new study
Great by Choice distinguishes itself from Collins’s prior work by its focus not just on performance, but also on the type of unstable environments faced by leaders today.With a team of more than twenty researchers, Collins and Hansen studied companies that rose to greatness-beating their industry indexes by a minimum of ten times over fifteen years-in environments characterized by big forces and rapid shifts that leaders could not predict or control. The research team then contrasted these “10X companies” to a carefully selected set of comparison companies that failed to achieve greatness in similarly extreme environments.
The new findings
The study results were full of provocative surprises. Such as:The best leaders were not more risk taking, more visionary, and more creative than the comparisons; they were more disciplined, more empirical, and more paranoid.
Innovation by itself turns out not to be the trump card in a chaotic and uncertain world; more important is the ability to scale innovation, to blend creativity with discipline.
Following the belief that leading in a “fast world” always requires “fast decisions” and “fast action” is a good way to get killed.
The great companies changed less in reaction to a radically changing world than the comparison companies.
The authors challenge conventional wisdom with thought-provoking, sticky, and supremely practical concepts. They include: 10Xers; the 20 Mile March; Fire Bullets, Then Cannonballs; Leading above the Death Line; Zoom Out, Then Zoom In; and the SMaC Recipe.Finally, in the last chapter, Collins and Hansen present their most provocative and original analysis: defining, quantifying, and studying the role of luck. The great companies and the leaders who built them were not luckier than the comparisons, but they did get a higher Return on Luck.
This book is classic Collins: contrarian, data-driven, and uplifting. He and Hansen show convincingly that, even in a chaotic and uncer
