Walking Through the Fire
Just two weeks after winning reelection to his ninth term in Congress, Steve King was stunned to learn the “Swamp” was poised to unleash a treacherous media blitzkrieg designed to kill his Congressional political career on the spot. The words, “They believe they can force you to resign” ring in his ears yet today. He knew Democrats and the media would pile on. Unfortunately, the threat was from within his party and it was far more dangerous. The Republican establishment, RINOs, elitists, globalists, and NeverTrumpers needed him out of the way. This is the full story.

Brag, Worry, Wonder, Bet
Giving someone feedback can be a daunting task for a manager— especially when an employee is underperforming. To soften the blow, we sometimes refer to diffi cult feedback as “developmental” or “constructive.” But these phrases rarely prompt the type of productive conversations managers need to have with team members. Steve King, a longtime HR executive and leader in executive education, cuts to the chase with a simple and trusted framework on providing feedback. Think of how great it would be to break through the typical awkwardness of giving feedback and start having serious conversations about performance, development, and careers. Regardless of your role, if you want to give fe...
Living in the Sunlight
Living in the Sunlight is dedicated to the exposition of a deceptively simple meditation practice. The Sunlight meditation is only mentioned in an unpublished 1915 letter from Aleister Crowley to his disciple Frater Achad, and in a 1922 lecture by Achad called "Living in the Sunlight.". And is being reclaimed as a modern practice, for members of the OTO and anyone else that wants to transform their life.
Six Conversations
Whether youre a new or seasoned manager, youve probably been overwhelmed by unspoken employee expectations and human resources processes. It can be easy to ignore doing what you actually need to do as a manager to develop employees and keep the best ones. In this guidebook to managerial success, youll learn how to answer six simple questions employees care about the most: What is expected of me? What and how should I develop? How am I doing? How did I do? How will I be rewarded? What is next for me? While you may be blessed or cursed by a system that requires written goals, documented development plans, performance ratings, compensation rationalization, assessments of flight risks, and so on, you cannot let the performance process drive these critical conversations. Instead, let the conversations drive the performance process. Take a giant leap forward toward improving productivity and morale at your organization. It starts with Six Conversations.
The Stand
Stephen King's apocalyptic vision of a world blasted by virus and tangled in an elemental struggle between good and evil remains as riveting and eerily plausible as when it was first published. Soon to be a television series. 'THE STAND is a masterpiece' (Guardian). Set in a virus-decimated US, King's thrilling American fantasy epic, is a Classic. First come the days of the virus. Then come the dreams. Dark dreams that warn of the coming of the dark man. The apostate of death, his worn-down boot heels tramping the night roads. The warlord of the charnel house and Prince of Evil. His time is at hand. His empire grows in the west and the Apocalypse looms. When a man crashes his car into a petrol station, he brings with him the foul corpses of his wife and daughter. He dies and it doesn't take long for the virus which killed him to spread across America and the world.
The Manager’s Dilemma
Why do so many change efforts in our organizations fail? One of a handful of reasons ... unprepared managers. Managers often feel their leaders cook up changes, unleash these changes, then expect managers to do the heavy lifting. That heavy lifting includes both coming to terms with changes personally, then getting their teams on board as well. This is the “Manager’s Dilemma”. Are managers helpless in this kind of situation? Are they set up to fail and disappoint? The answer is no. Even when senior leaders struggle to do their jobs as sponsors of change, there are plenty of things a manager can do to advance the change agenda and perhaps save the day. Steve King unpacks three key roles managers need to play in moments of change: change communicator, change coach, and change advocate .... and provides some simple tools and tactics for getting this job done.
