Identifying Small Habits
Rowman & Littlefield (Verlag)
978-1-4758-6401-4 (ISBN)
Each chapter identifies and unpacks one small habit. The habit is surfaced and examples provided to bring it to life. Then, different strategies are presented to course-correct on this habit. Each chapter is short in nature and easily digestible. This book can be read cover-to-cover or picked through chapter by chapter in any order desired. It is also designed to be read once all the way through with leaders identifying habits that speak to them and returning to those chapters as needed.
