Hi. I’m doing some pro bono work for a small business. I like your Good to Great Study Guide. Is your material free? And if not, how do I request permission to print and use multiple copies of your material? Thank you. Winfield

As long as you don’t charge anything you should be okay. The author/publisher of the book itself is the one with the rights. My guide is just a tool to help people interact with the book.

Looked through your posts and they’re very insightful – even to someone who is not a massive church-goer! The acronym is very clever too 🙂

Good afternoon. I was wondering if I could get permission to reprint this study guide in my professional organizations magazine?

If there is profit involved in the publishing, it could violate the rights of the writers/publishers of the book Crucial Conversations. I wrote the study guide to help a group get the most from their discussion of the book. I don’t mind if people use it as long as they don’t take anything away from the book’s writers/publishers.

Nice clear ‘About’ page and from looking around your site, I see that you have extensive resources for those in leadership roles (I am a manager where I work – so I will be checking these out).
Thanks for stopping by my site also with the positive feedback,
Audrey

Hi Gracelead,
The info contained is good for those who’ve yet to learn and well-placed to remind us who “know” to know it better. Lead on 🙂

I love that you open this resource to others outside of your church. Even though not everyone is an official leader, I believe we all have our spheres of influence and are required to exercise leadership even if only over ourselves.
Bless you.
