Synopsis

In a world where change happens at light speed, discovering and mastering the power of change can transform your business and your life.

Stop feeling overwhelmed with changing technology, culture, business, trends, and values, and regain the confidence that can give you a real advantage. Stability, once a mainstay of American life, is now a pipe dream. For most people, this creates major anxiety, worry, and confusion. In JOLT!, Phil Cooke, television producer, media guru, and cultural commentator, will help you discover how you can navigate the whirlwind of change and actually use it to your advantage. After spending three decades helping organizations master the art of change, he realized that changing a company or changing your life, are both based on virtually the same key principles.

In this accessible and relevant guidebook meant to anchor and empower every reader, Cooke unveils 25 jolts anyone can leverage to establish a new direction, maximize potential, overcome insecurity, safeguard the heart and mind, reinforce values, and create an amazing future and lasting legacy. Whether your goal is to revitalize your organization, or transform the direction of your life, he reveals the secrets to becoming a game changer in readers lives, opening up new possibilities, confidence, and impact.

Like the “Reset” button on a computer, JOLT! can revolutionize your thinking and shake up your life!

The world has changed and nothing will ever be the same again. Most people have reacted by hunkering down and settling into survival mode. In Jolt!, Phil Cooke brilliantly shows us that we were created for something far greater. We don’t have to have life dictated to us. We can rise above the chaos and stay ahead of the curve.- Steven Furtick, Lead Pastor, Elevation Church; author of Sun Stand Still 

JOLT will motivate you to adapt and change to our ever evolving world......

Phil Cookes clear and frank writing style speaks directly to todays readers, applicable for  both personal and business sides of us all.

- Mark Zoradi - Former President of Walt Disney Motion Picture Group

“The only way to hit a moving target (and Phil Cooke shows just how fast-moving this culture is) is to get ahead of it.  If you’re tired of playing the game of either catch-up or put-down, Jolt! is for you. It’s the best book out there on how to move from Carpe Diem to Carpe Manana.”

 - Leonard Sweet, best-selling author and professor (Drew University, George Fox University)

About this title

About the Author

Phil Cooke, a writer, speaker, and filmmaker, is changing the way business, church, and nonprofit leaders influence and engage the culture. Christianity Today calls him a “media guru.” His media company, Cooke Pictures, advises many of the largest and most effective churches and nonprofit organizations in the world, and his books and blog (at philcooke.com) are changing the way they tell their story.

Review

"This is a somewhat different take on the general-purpose self-help treatise. Here the listener gets significant faith-based advice on how to prevail amid constant change. Bill DeWees’s fast, hard-hitting delivery is like that of a televangelist. He delivers each “jolt” of simple advice with passion and enthusiasm that is sufficient to keep even the jaded attentive. His narrative style is clear and bold without sounding pretentious. The 25 discrete “jolts” make an excellent structure for the book. Listeners who are new to the self-help genre and those who want an introductory self-improvement book with a Christian orientation will find this wothwhile."
