    Greetings Fellow MSR Folks:

    We have recently put together a book that might be of interest to many of you. 

    The book, OUR SOULS AT WORK: HOW GREAT LEADERS LIVE THEIR FAITH IN THE GLOBAL MARKETPLACE, features contributions from 37 different marketplace leaders including:

    Steve Reinemund (former CEO/Chair of PepsiCo), 
    John Tyson, Chair (formerly CEO) of Tyson Foods, 
    Dennis Bakke (formerly CEO) of AES, 
    Mo Anderson vice chair (former CEO/Chair) of Keller Williams Realty, 
    Steve Lynn, CEO of Backyard Burgers (former CEO of Sonics, Shoneys & Captain D's), 
    Bonnie Wurzbacher, Senior VP of Global Customer Leadership at Coca-Cola,
    Blake Mycoskie of TOMS Shoes, 
    Scott Harrison of charity: water,
    and many others

    For a complete list of contributors and their bios go to: http://www.russell-media.com/contributors.

    It is a faith at work book designed to create conversation around twelve themes (chapter titles):

    1) Calling
    2) Leadership
    3) Character
    4) Success
    5) Money
    6) Stewardship
    7) Balance
    8) Disciplines
    9) Relationships
    10) Pluralism
    11) Ethics
    12) Giving

    While the book is from a distinctly Christian perspective, we think the book will be a great way to host a conversation around these issues in secular and religious university classrooms. Twelve easy to read chapters makes it an excellent choice for supplemental reading for courses on ethics, leadership or religion/spirituality. 

    We have 250 copies ready to ship for free to MSR list serve people, professors and other leaders working in this space.

    If you are interested in receiving a free copy, it's first come, first serve. Just email me at: mark@markrussell.org and send me your mailing address.

    Sincerely,
    Mark L. Russell
