This book is for engineers and scientists who have the aptitude and education to create new products that could become income-producing businesses for themselves and for investors. The book uses short chapters and gets directly to the point without lengthy and distracting essays. The rapid growth in technology-based business plan contests is a clear sign that there are many wealthy inventors looking to make substantial investments in start-ups based on new inventions by inventors, who lack the funds and knowledge to start a business. The key features of this reference enable readers to sharpen their new idea, turn an idea into a commercial product, conduct patent search and complete a provisional patent application, and collect requisite data and prepare a business plan based on a carefully selected business model. Supporting materials are provided on the book's extensive website (www.engineer-entrepreneur-book.com/).

There are no perfect leaders. God uses unprepared, untrained, incomplete, and unqualified people to "see and do greater things" for Him. He guides and gives vision, while equipping those He calls. In this practical and inspirational book, Dr. Paul Swamidass explores how Biblical leadership skills and giftings are multi-dimensional. He highlights both the leader's strengths and weaknesses and shows how Christ-centered leadership based on Biblical truth creates a thriving leader equipped to strengthen and prepare other believers. In this book, you will discover: - How Jesus taught leadership by personal example - How Jesus explained the qualifications of Biblical leaders - That Jesus taught leadership qualifications through admonition of failed religious leaders - How we can learn from exemplary Biblical leaders - How we can learn from failed leaders in the Bible Leading a church or ministry can seem a daunting task, but God's Word provides the perfect template for instruction. Dr. Swamidass expertly guides readers to the revelatory leadership principles contained within the Bible. This book is for every Christian who wants to grow as a wise, effective, and flourishing leader.
