Wait, wait, don’t leave yet … I just have a little message I wanted to get out to readers of LeadingSmart.com or friends of Tim-- and this seemed like the best way to do it.

As you may or may not know, Tim’s newest book, Fairness is Overrated, is coming out three months from today (January 6, 2015). This book covers 52 leadership principles for both church and business leaders and is a must read for all. Our hope is that this book will get in the hands of leaders everywhere so it can have as big of an impact as possible.

Just to give you a taste of the potential impact of the book, here is what a few leaders have already said about Fairness is Overrated:

“You'll feel like you're having a conversation with a leader worth following.  Because you will be.” (John Ortberg, Pastor and Author)

"Stevens dives deep into understanding the value of people and relationships and how it can make or break you as a leader." (Jason Lippert, CEO, Lippert Components Inc.)

“I recommend you get this book into the hands of every business leader in your church.” (Mark Batterson, NY Times bestselling author of The Circle Maker)

“Every page and every chapter of this book is grounded in the heart of a man who leads well every day.  Read this and become a better leader.” (Dr. John Jackson, President of William Jessup University)

I’m writing you because I need your help to spread the news.

In today’s world, just about everyone is on social media and if you’re reading this that means you fall under that category. Social media is a great thing because it allows us to stay connected with people who we may not see every day and it’s a great tool to spread ideas that may not have been discovered otherwise. In the case of this book, we’re going to use social media to do the primary marketing before the book releases.

That’s where you come in.

We’re looking for 200 men and women to help us launch this book. This means tweeting, blogging, instagramming, etc. We won’t ask you to blow up Facebook so much that all your friends hate you, we will just ask you to start a little conversation and get people excited about the upcoming sale of the book. You will get specifics from me later, and everyone involved on this team will receive a free PDF of the book (along with some other exciting surprises!).

If you’re interested, fill out this form and, after going through the responses, we’ll send you an email with more information and instructions from there.
