About this ebook
For leaders who struggle with managing conflict, there is hope in the story of David and Goliath. Within these pages unfolds a war plan that is concise and effective. This book provides practical applications that address workplace conflict as well as personal contentions that threaten relationships. The Goliath Method breaks down the story into valuable leadership lessons that address specific—and seemingly gigantic—people problems. Whether one is dealing with a difficult employee who crosses boundaries, a boss who is a bully, a team that is dysfunctional, or a marriage that is crumbling, the Goliath Method provides practical solutions that can help even the most unskilled person manage conflict with confidence. Moreover, this book’s readers will be able to reflect on actions that call for personal accountability. Within this ancient story, everyone can find modern ways to slay the giants of life. And like David, they will be victorious!
