Book Description
In recent decades global missions have been revolutionized by such movements as microenterprise development efforts and tentmaking professionals working in restricted access countries.But little has yet been said about the new missions opportunities created by today's globalized economy. Nor has much been documented about the role that corporations and businesses can have in the missionary enterprise.Economist Steve Rundle and missiologist Tom Steffen offer a new paradigm for the convergence of business and missions--the Great Commission Company. These companies intentionally create businesses in strategic locations, pursuing profits while remaining unabashedly Christian in their purpose. By establishing authentic businesses that employ local workers among the least-reached peoples of the world, they contribute to the economic health of the immediate community and also provide avenues for both physical and spiritual ministry.Based on a five-year study of groundbreaking enterprises like Pura Vida Coffee, this book offers keen analysis of the principles and practices of these companies. In an era where multinational corporations have global influence and impact, the Great Commission Company opens up new possibilities for missions-minded entrepreneurs and businesspeople who want to change the world to the glory of God.

Work as to the Lord, wherever you are........2007-02-13
"There was once a time when the simple act of sending money to missionaries gave people at home an adequate sense of connectedness and participation. Today that some act often connotes a disconnectedness...Christians today are not losing interest in the poorest and least reached so much as they are failing to see a connection between their current circumstances and those of people in other parts of the world." (193)
This book explores the connection between the current trend of globalization of the world economy, and the methods used to evangelize and disciple people of other cultures. The main theme of the book is the role that business plays in the emerging global economy and the changing face of international missions. "Not long ago many people viewed the term "Christian businessman (or woman) as an oxymoron." (p7). The authors explore this fallacy and develop their argument that business is an important method to further the kingdom of God in today's world. "Globalization is helping to undo the modern dichotomy between spiritual and worldly professions, in part by bringing businesses of all sizes into countries that are in desperate spiritual and economic need."(6).
The authors do not attempt to say that all Christians are mandated to drop everything and start an international company. The point made is that the choices we make are having an impact on the world regardless of whether we pay attention to them or not. We can use these choices to leverage the current climate to allow more people to hear and understand the gospel as well as help heal the inequalities that are facilitated by our current economic system. The book asserts the "...biblical legitimacy of free market economics and the positive impact Christians can have in the market place." They argue that "...business itself is a calling, that the marketplace is a legitimate mission field and indeed is a place that needs Christians who will stem the corrosive economic effects of an unchecked sin nature." (7).
A fallacy of spiritual hierarchy is deconstructed in this book. This unwritten, unspoken fallacy is that those who are truly serious about their commitment to Christ will get special training, change careers, and become professional Christian workers. The authors argue that those who are truly effective at ministering Christ's love and forgiveness are those who are open to being used by God wherever they are and how faithful they are in those varied places.
A secondary theme of the book is related to the first. While arguing for business as a valid means to fulfilling the Great Commission, the authors denounce other ways that `tentmaking' has been applied to business and missions. Here they refer to the practice of using a business only as a cover or platform to gain access or entry to a closed country. A phantom company which does not actually conduct business or only enough business to appear legitimate is the exact opposite of what the authors are proposing. A business used as only a platform in this way is not only unethical, but will be transparent to the nationals as well. The book acknowledges that balancing the business and ministry components of this type of company is not easy. However, they would much rather a company act in excellence and integrity in the conduct of their business. "Combining business and missions is not easy, and it creates a tension that does not exist when the activities are pursued separately. But the fact that it is difficult is not a valid reason for not trying." (7)
The case studies given spend a lot of time recalling the personal and spiritual background of the founders of the companies profiled. The authors explain that this is because, according to their research, the most important factor determining the success or failure of a Great Commission Company is the people involved. While business experience is an important factor and extremely valuable, an attitude of excellence and flexibility along with spiritual discipline and a desire to see the kingdom of God advanced are more important. These case studies proved to be the most enjoyable part of the book.
The experience and wisdom gained in their research has led the authors to propose some guidelines for evaluating the viability of both the business and missional aspects of a potential company. This helps readers look at the practical aspects of successful Great Commission Companies. Some of the most important aspects are: Teams (preferably intercultural), Accountability, Intentionality, and Integrity. (see chapters five, six, and twelve).
Criticism that I have for the book has to do with assumptions about international business and economics. I wish the authors would have expanded their thoughts more on the idea presented in a quote by Larry Reed regarding responsible stewardship of resources. "Christians today earn about one-quarter of all the income in the world. Thus, any effort to correct the ills of our current system must begin with a look at how we acquire this income and how we use it." (193). Christians should be concerned about the industry that their business or purchasing patterns contribute to. Another issue that struck me as potentially difficult to readers was the incredible drive displayed by all of the individuals profiled in the case studies. I can see where after being encouraged by the first section of the book, some may be dismayed to imitate what seems exceptional people and circumstances. These individuals display passion for their vision, and we are reminded that it is not our circumstances that shape who we are, but rather our response to those circumstances.
On the positive side, the authors state their views and biases up front and go on to argue their case for business being a legitimate method of being a faithful disciple of Christ. The book is easy to read and accessible to those even without business experience. Questions for review and further thought were included at the end of most chapters. Overall, I feel that this is a valuable book for gaining an introduction to the changing climate of world missions.
This book could be an important resource to help Christians explore the place they have living in God's Kingdom and playing their part in seeing that kingdom ushered in more fully.
Great for a business professional........2005-01-05
To the point. Good details. Good foundation for a GCC as a form of both ministry and work.
Finally a practical guide to Christian business.......2004-03-04
Many books that deal with the topic of Christianity and business fall into one of two camps, either they are very theoretical, providing a lot of thoughts about business, but no practical examples of ways to integrate faith and work. Or they tend to offer simplistic advice about how to be a "Moral" worker.
Steve Rundle and Tom Steffen avoid both traps by providing well thought through theory combined with case studies that show that theory in action. They really provide the reader with a diverse set of examples of people working hard and moving God's kingdom forward at the same time. This deserves to be widely read.
Excellent work in integrating business and missions.......2004-02-01
I used this book in a college-level course titled "Business and Missions" I just finished co-teaching at Spring Arbor University. The focus of the course is to examine the role for-profit companies can play in world mission. We thoroughly enjoyed the book - it is very well written, thought-provoking and sets a solid foundation for our understanding and discussion of the subject. Sound economic/business and missional principles are discussed and followed. The students were asked to analyze the case studies of Great Commission Companies (GCCs) presented in the book and evaluate the business and missional viability of each case and they did a fine job. We also liked how the authors classified the GCCs. Overall, the students enjoyed the course and the book, and some even expressed an interest in working for or starting a GCC in the future. I would highly recommend this book to anyone who has an interest in seeing how business and missions can be integrated, and those who have a desire to start a GCC. This would also make an ideal first text for a business/mission course.
first of its kind.......2004-01-28
Dr. Rundle & Tom Steffen have put together a book that can be incorporated into group settings and also be read by itself. They have presented stories which are powerful and help you gain a big picture understanding of what a Great Commission company and plan is. Great job - hoping for another release in the near future.

Unlearning and Learning.......2007-05-17
Dede is a Harvard Education professor writing about the online gap. One big point he makes is how some experienced teachers have a more difficult time "unlearning" things and that it is easier to know nothing and learn new things than to unlearn and learn a new thing. He implies how some school's have focused on workshops too much on things such as classroom management and other social political issues when more online training would be appropriate. He even made a video about unlearning in particular, about 3.5 minutes long.
Within the book are various models for various fields on how implementation of all kinds of curriculum can incorporate online material in effective ways. His strategy to get around the gap is to have training paid for teachers in which they take a class which relates to a project that they would incorporate in their class. e-Mentoring for Student Success (eMSS) is an example which incorporates Science and online courses that is used from the book. eMSS plans on integrating mathematics, but this has not been done yet. Many of the programs mentioned seem to have most of a focus on Math, Science, and English. History is mentioned in a few programs at least, but as these programs are pretty new, some programs may not have a lot to offer for your curriculum type. It is a good read to show you some things that are out there that be used to integrate with online learning.
Book Description
Emerging Systems of Managing Workplace Conflict presents illustrative real-life examples as well as cutting-edge methods and tools for integrating systems of dispute resolution into standard corporate procedures. This vital resource investigates the systems organizations have developed to manage common and costly workplace conflicts involving supervisor-employee relationships; race, age, and gender discrimination complaints; sexual harassment; occupational safety and health; reasonable accommodation of the disabled; and wrongful termination as well as other problems stemming from governmental regulations and court actions.
Drawing on the authors' vast research and frontline experience with a wide variety of corporations and organizations, this important book examines successful responses to universal workplace problems and conflicts. In addition, the book is filled with illuminating case examples and stories from organizations, such as Brown and Root, Kaufman and Broad, Warner Brothers, Universal-Studios, Kaiser Permanente, the United States Postal Service, Johnson & Johnson, Shell, Prudential, and others, that have instituted systems of dispute resolution in response to ongoing destructive conflict, expensive litigation, and crippling settlements. This book offers an enormously useful approach for the application of the most up-to-date systems of organizational conflict resolution and shows how this approach can work in specific situations to save time and money.

"Comprehensive Study of Evolution of Corporate ADR Processes.......2003-08-26
ADR experts Lipsky, Seeber and Fincher have provided a comprehensive and practically written account of the evolution of corporate alternative dispute resolution ("ADR")processes from the early days of collective action in the 1930's to the present-day use of conflict management programs to enhance the productivity and overall satisfaction of workers in companies seeking to compete in global markets. The book places today's corporate ADR programs in the context of labor history and the increasingly complex federal, state and local legislative scheme, thus providing an important frame of reference to those interested in introducing, designing, and implementing internal ADR systems. The authors' premise is that corporations that consider managing workplace conflict as a significant organizational goal have moved from a "dispute resolution" perspective to a "conflict management" paradigm. Whether a corporation will adopt any such system depends on a myriad of factors both internal (corporate culture and mission) and external (markets, regulations, litigation exposure). The authors note that the field of dispute resolution has depended on almost allegorical accounts of the cost-savings, efficiencies, and high satisfaction rate reported by participants in ADR systems. The field has not generated the empirical support for these oft-repeated benefits of dispute resolution processes, leaving corporations without the metric economic evidence needed to support new corporate initiatives. Recognizing the challenge of providing "hard evidence that corporations actually do save time and money by using ADR, however" (p.313), the authors "conclude that the vast majority of corporations favor dispute management over conflict management." (id.)The authors use the building blocks of hundreds of interviews of corporate executives, human resources, employee relations and legal department officials throughout the country as well as government representatives to make their case that corporations that approach conflict management systematically and with a long-range perspective will ultimately embrace and benefit from successful systems. One of the most useful contributions made by the book is the extensive discussion in Part Two: The Extablishment of Conflict Management Systems, which provides -- excuse the expression-- a "road-map" for individuals within corporations seeking to introduce, design and implement a complete workplace conflict resolution system. The authors provide templates for deciding such important questions as composition of the design committee, eliciting support from various corporate constituencies, determining the scope of the process, common design features, and methods for evaluating success. The authors conclude the book with a clear-eyed discussion of the future of workplace conflict management systems, in a society still grappling with litigation prevention and reduction strategies. As a practitioner in the field, I highly recommend this to others interested in promoting alternative dispute resolution in the workplace.

First Rate.......2003-06-18
Emerging Systems for Managing Workplace Conflict is a rich compendium of research, insightful analysis and practical advice that will be invaluable for any individual interested in the field of workplace conflict management. Written by three authors who each bring an average of between 25 and 35 years of background experience in labor relations and human resources management, supplemented by extensive work as mediators, arbitrators and consultants to public and private sector organizations, it is a "must read" in its field.
The work is based on more than six years of research into conflict management systems in the United States. The authors draw upon surveys of general counsel of Fortune 1000 corporations, onsite interviews with over 700 executives, managers and attorneys in sixty firms and extensive interviews with individuals operating as neutral parties in the settlement of conflicts and disputes.
Based upon their research, the authors conclude that "... there is a sea change in U.S. organizations that reflects an emergence of systems of conflict management and a new paradigm for organizations" (p.5). Their finding, they note, is independently confirmed in research conducted in 1999 by Bingham and Chachere who found that "about half of [U.S.] `large' private employers ha[d] established some sort of formal dispute resolution procedure for their nonunion employees"(p. 81).
With this major movement established, the authors proceed to explain the reasons for the shift to conflict management systems, the processes that have emerged to service that demand, how those systems were created and implemented and the challenges that lie ahead in the field.
Importantly, the authors immediately focus on the corporate interests that drive the development and implementation of alternative systems for conflict management. Overwhelmingly, the primary driver in developing alternative systems to replace litigation procedures is the belief that dispute resolution can be accomplished at less cost in dollars and time." (p.6).
"In our survey of the Fortune 1000," the authors write, "about 80 percent of the respondents told us that saving time or saving money was the primary reason the corporation had used ADR" (p.313). The implications of this finding are clear and reflected, as the authors point out, in the fact that "... the vast majority of corporations favor dispute management over conflict management" (p.313).
Having presented us with the primary drivers as well as several other contributing factors, the authors move into a discussion of alternative management systems and their components. Readers will learn the pros and cons of the main features of these systems. It is truly a handbook of elements for both the decision-maker and the designer.
The book explores who is eligible in most systems, the essential elements for judging the fairness of a system, the issues of who pays the costs, training requirements, the use of outside "neutral" parties and a host of other common design features in considerable detail. You will find the most common element, the Open Door, explored with its drawbacks and its contributions. Additionally, you will find a careful discussion of other features such as "hotlines," ombudspersons, resolution facilitators, internal peer mediation and external "neutral" ad hoc personnel. Always, the authors present the pros and cons of each of the possible components.
Professors Lipsky, Seeber and Fincher then lead the reader through the process of system design and implementation, citing key steps along the way. Always, their work is based on findings from major U.S. organizations that have engaged in the process.
As they examine the process, the authors provide the reader with another very valuable part of their work by confronting the issues inherent in evaluating the systems. Their findings will be either a comfort or a source of devastation for the planner.
The authors put the matter succinctly and critically. The frame for evaluation is necessarily couched in the key question: "As compared to what?" (p.269).
Indeed, the answer is far from easy. Rather, it may be astonishingly elusive.
The challenge of evaluation is one the authors explore in detail, showing various evaluation schemes in practice in American corporations today. Results, alas, yield data far from business case standards. "Leaders of organizations, even if they believe in conflict management," they conclude, "are often faced with going forward in the absence of any hard evidence about the benefits of the system" (p.308).
"There is in fact very little hard evidence that corporations actually do save time and money by using ADR ...," they conclude (p. 313). "Furthermore," they assert, "it is not clear to us that many corporations are even gathering the information necessary to make a cost benefit analysis" (p.313).
As befits a work of this breadth and depth, the authors do not disappoint us as they turn their attention at the close of their work to the future of conflict management systems. Their work is insightful and thorough.
"Contrary to much of the popular literature and perceptions regarding ADR and somewhat surprising to us," the authors conclude "we do not believe that the ADR movement has achieved the critical mass necessary to institutionalize it within most large businesses and organizations" (p.315). And yet, the authors are confident that the future trend is toward the expansion of alternative dispute resolution procedures, but far less certain about the broad expansion of conflict management systems. It is an area with unresolved issues and significant promises. Readers will find thought provoking and useful discussion of these issues as the conclusion to the work.
There is far more in this book than this review touches upon. Additionally, readers will find an extensive bibliography, current research statistics, informative footnotes and an eminently useable glossary.
Highly recommended.

Practical Guide for Managing Workplace Conflict.......2003-06-13
For many years, scholars and academics have focused on the importance of conflict resolution in the workplace. This tradition goes back to studies that were done in the 1940s-50s. In more recent years, conflict in the workplace has become a major issue. No longer are workplaces those socially integrative, sometimes paternalistic, havens for lifetime security. They are now arenas for multiple conflicts. The issue therefore becomes how to deal with these conflicts in a non-ad hoc manner--how to put in place systems for managing conflict. American corporations have much to teach the world in this regard. The problem is that before this book, no one has systemized these lessons. Before this book, there was no central location where the tools, the methodologies, and the processes necessary for putting quality conflict resolution was readily available. Lipsky, Seeber, and Fincher have provided a critical service in having completed this volume. They have written the definitive reference volume on the specific issue of alternative dispute resolution techniques in American business. In this context, they have served the practitioner community well. Yet not only is this a well-written book for the practitioner, it is an informative book for the academic. The combined research record of these authors is impressive and it serves them well in putting this material together. Anyone interested in alternative dispute resolution in the workplace must have this well-written volume as a reference.

Book Description
The major purpose of this book is to present and discuss current thinking, theories, conceptual frameworks, models and promising examples of engaged learning with emerging technologies. Contributions come from distinguished academics in the USA, Canada, the Netherlands, United Kingdom, Germany, Australia, New Zealand, China, Korea and Singapore. Following from a constructivist orientation, coupled with social cultural dimensions of learning, this volume documents how emerging learning technologies are appropriated into meaningful and engaged learning and instructional situations. The field of learning technologies is grounded on the theoretical constructs of the learning sciences and thus the chapters in this book balance between theory and practice and prepositions and solutions.
