Synopsis

Is Christian faith compatible with business? There is nothing in the Bible about spreadsheets, operating manuals, or organizational charts. But as the professionals in this book point out, God's Word has a whole lot to say about people and relationships, leaders and followers, principles and integrity. For these executives, faith is not only compatible with their corporate roles, it¹s inseparable. Corporate Giants contains interviews with some of the most successful and visible Christian businessmen in the United States. Each interviewee speaks candidly about how his relationship with Christ has powerfully shaped his life, career, business philosophy, and interaction with others. Many also offer salient bits of business advice or tips for budding entrepreneurs and seasoned professionals alike. In these fascinating testimonies, readers will find affirmation and guidance on how to be an effective leader and "walk the faith" in the marketplace at the same time. Among those interviewed are John F. Baugh SYSCO Corporation; Jeffrey W. Comment Helsberg Diamonds; Jerry Conangelo Phoenix Suns, Arizona Diamondbacks, Arizona Rattlers; George Farr Children¹s Medical Center of Dallas; Billy Ray Hearn EMI Christian Music Group; Norm Miller Interstate Battery Systems; and Horst H. Schultze The Ritz-Carlton Hotel Company.
