'This book is fantastic. The only thing missing is that my new boss didn't read it before ruining our team. Thanks, Gavin.' * <b> Suffering Team Member </b> * 'I started a company from scratch with no money. Long before that, I led a well-established and well-funded organization that is one of the oldest in the city of Houston. Hands down, the more difficult task was leading something I didn't start. And it's the task most leaders will face. If that's you, get a copy of Big Shoes to Fill today. I wish I had a copy all those years ago.' * <b> William Vanderbloemen, founder and CEO, Vanderbloemen </b> * 'Gavin's authenticity and experience make Big Shoes to Fill a must-read for leaders. I have watched him lead for the last fifteen years and know that you will be encouraged by this book.' * <b> Jon Acuff, New York Times bestselling author, All It Takes Is a Goal </b> * 'There's a significant difference in becoming one of many leaders on a team and becoming the CEO for an organization. Fortunately, in Big Shoes to Fill, Gavin addresses the unique challenges of becoming that new point leader by sharing his experiences and the wisdom of other successful marketplace and ministry leaders. Your leadership legacy begins on day one of your new leadership role. This book will help you maximize that opportunity to start strong and transition well.' * <b> Tony Morgan, Founder and Lead Strategist of The Unstuck Group </b> * 'I worked closely with Gavin for more than ten years. He is an extraordinary entrepreneur and leader. His authenticity and experience make Big Shoes to Fill a must-read.' * <b> Andy Stanley, senior pastor, North Point Ministries </b> * 'Most leaders don't start with a fresh slate; instead, they inherit something stale--a team, a process, or perhaps an entire organization. If you find yourself in that spot, Big Shoes to Fill by Gavin Adams offers you a concrete approach to explore the natural tensions in transitions, create an environment that expedites trust, and reframe mindsets from unreliable emotions to achieving reliable results.' * <b> Cheryl Bachelder, author, Dare to Serve: How to Drive Superior Results by Serving Others </b> * 'Pragmatic, proven, and powerful. In Big Shoes to Fill, Gavin draws from his deep well of personal experiences to help leaders accelerate their success.' * <b> Mark Miller, Wall Street Journal bestselling author, Culture Rules; former VP of High Performance Leadership, Chick-fil-A, Inc. </b> *
