Built to Beat Chaos in Business – Gary Harpst

Built to Beat Chaos in Business

Gary Harpst

Gary Harpst is a Christian CEO with over 40 years of experience in building businesses and learning what is means to be true to his faith – especially when things do not go as planned. Amen!  I think we all can relate to that – I know I can, Praise God!  Gary is a keynote speaker and insightful teacher who challenges and motivates his audiences. He has learned that, along with growth, we will also experience chaos. But he helps you to discover the answers other successful CEO’s and business leaders have found, so you will be able to overcome the chaos that happens your life. Amen!

 

In the process, Gary unlocks biblical wisdom for unleashing the potential in every human being to lead themselves and others. This wisdom will help you to overcome whatever it is plaguing you right now, too. Amen!

Gary is recognized as being one of the Top 100 of the nation's thought leaders in management and leadership, as ranked by the Leadership Excellence magazine.

Because of his expertise, Gary has been interviewed numerous times and is often quoted by national and local media for newspaper and magazine articles, as well as for podcasts, radio, and TV interviews.

Help me welcome to the program, Gary Harpst!  Gary, I’ve been waiting for this interview ever since we first started talking about it, brother!  Thank you for joining us today!

First question I always start with is this. Other than that brief information I just shared, Can you tell us in your own words, “Who is Gary Harpst?”

I mentioned in the opening, that you help people not to just beat the chaos in our lives and business, but how to use it to our advantage. You actually have written a book about this. “Built to Beat Chaos: Biblical Wisdom for Leading Yourself and Others.”  In your book, you have a section, “How Do I Get Control of Chaos?” How does that work?

In this book, you also share the “Biblical Secret for Unlocking the Potential of My People.”  Can you discuss this a little bit with us?  What is the Biblical secret?

I know some people are hesitant about mixing Faith and the workplace. You have a complete webinar on this topic. The bottom line is that we should be using the workplace as one way to build up the Kingdom on this earth, correct?  Basically the “whole business and whole person” process. You describe that as a “Kingdom Impact Business.” Can you explain that for us?

I love that you share we are “body, soul and spirit.” Which we are… but you encourage entrepreneurs to understand that people spend 2/3 of their life OUTSIDE of the work place. I know I’ve worked for some organizations that gave you a Blackberry (I’m dating myself now…). I hated that thing!  It would go off at all kinds of times to ask questions or “if I could do such and such.”  Today, we have cell phones – it seems like we are supposed to be available 24/7.  What do you share about that with business owners and managers?

Gary, this has been so interesting. If someone wanted to buy your book, “Built to Beat Chaos: Biblical Wisdom for Leading Yourself and Others.”  How can they do that? Is it on Amazon?

If someone wanted to get in touch with you, to ask a question or to get more information, how can they do that? How can someone get in touch with you?

I’ll put links to all of this in the show notes below.

Folks, cultivating the character and mindset of Godly Wisdom will help you to overcome the chaos, that really begins in the mind. Gary and his team are here to help you stay Kingdom focused and overcome the chaos – and help you to succeed in life and in business, too. Amen!

If you want to lead consistently from a place of Wisdom, perspective and experience that true freedom – get in touch with Gary and his team.

Amen!
