Author Bio:
Gregg has experience leading teams across a wide variety of disciplines from commanding Marines in combat to advising our nation’s senior leaders. As well as a Marine Corps Major General, Gregg has extensive senior executive leadership and project management experience improving adaptability and performance in complex organizations undergoing constant change. Gregg is a decorated team leader and mentor who has proven to exhibit excellent judgment and high integrity in critical decision-making situations.

Gregg is also CEO of Mission Critical Leadership Solutions, a leadership building firm that consults business owners, top executives, and entrepreneurs to succeed in the highly competitive world of business. Gregg’s proprietary system for getting it done—The Mission Critical 8-point System—is designed to address the critical areas of an organization that a leader needs to master to build a prosperous business.

Gregg is known for his warm, yet no-nonsense style. He’s not the “iron-jawed” General that you may see in the movies. Rather, Gregg utilizes understanding and compassion to bring out the best in people. One could say that his leadership style, though systematic, is an art form that stems from a love of people and a burning desire for them to win. This leadership style is an essential part of what Gregg teaches his clients so that they too will get the best out of people, as well as themselves.

About Radical Forgiveness Through the Eyes of Jesus

Sometimes forgiving others who may have wronged us or forgiving ourselves for our past blunders can be very difficult. Our worst enemies―fear, pride, and selfishness―can often rob us from experiencing healthy, fulfilling interpersonal relationships through our intentional unforgiveness. Radical Forgiveness Through the Eyes of Jesus shows how we can experience and express God’s love, grace, and mercy in ways that transform, as we forgive others (and ourselves) as God has forgiven us.

About His Secretary: Undone

I’m about to throw an ashtray at my boss’s head.

Turns out, the mind behind my favorite, steamy romance novels…the ones I only read in private…the ones that are my only escape after a long day of dealing with The Boss From Hell? It’s not Natalie McBride, the sweet, rural housewife.

It’s him.

That’s right: my boss, Adrian Risinger, the thirty-three-year-old, maddeningly sexy, pissant billionaire “bad boy” who thinks he runs my life. He is also the author of all my deepest, most secret fantasies. And to make matters worse, he needs me to impersonate “Natalie” at a series of book signings and conventions. But, of course, that’s only if I want to keep my job.

On second thought, I’m going to need something heavier than an ashtray.

About Supersized Lies by Robert J. Davis

The world would have you believe that losing weight is easy, but the truth is, in many cases, you’re being fed a generous helping of falsehoods and misguided dieting advice.
The media, celebrities, weight-loss gurus, and the Internet bombard society with recommendations about how to shed unwanted pounds: Count calories, cut carbs, exercise more, skip meals, drink more water, pop a pill. Yet as more people try diligently to follow this advice, waistlines continue to expand.
In Supersized Lies, Robert J. Davis, PhD, aka The Healthy Skeptic, shows you why this inability to lose weight isn’t your fault as he reveals how hype, half-truths, and unproven solutions have steered you into fruitless quests that inflict emotional and physical harm.
In this health and wellness book, the award-winning health journalist, whose work has appeared on CNN, WebMD, and in The Wall Street Journal, reveals:
• Which weight-loss measures are most – and least – likely to be effective.
• How conventional wisdom about weight loss is often wrong.
• How to spot misleading weight-loss advice, and avoid being duped into wasting time, money, and effort.
• How, contrary to what we often hear, effective weight control doesn’t require following complicated, restrictive rules.
• The interesting history behind flawed weight-loss advice, and the forces that currently perpetuate and benefit from it.
In addition to uncovering how and why we’re being led astray, Supersized Lies lays out weight-control strategies that research shows actually work, and it tells the inspiring stories of people who, after falling victim to the falsehoods of conventional guidance, have achieved success by forging their own paths.
Written in a lively, easy-to-understand style, this myth-shattering book sheds surprising new light on old assumptions and offers an inspiring way forward to those caught in the cacophony of weight-loss advice.
