Discover the Leadership Framework Every Team Needs
Seasons of Life and Leadership by Lee Coate is not just another leadership book—it’s a compelling blend of story and strategy that reveals how leaders grow through distinct seasons: Prince, Warrior, King, and Sage. Through a powerful fable set in a modern church and a practical guide that follows, readers learn how to lead with clarity, collaborate across generations, and steward both legacy and innovation. If you’ve ever felt stuck between the passion of the next generation and the wisdom of the last, this book will unlock the empathy and strategy needed to lead well in every season. Whether you’re just beginning your leadership journey or standing at the helm of a growing organization, Seasons of Life and Leadership will equip you to move forward with courage, clarity, and purpose.

Permission To Live And Lead... Loud And Large.
Yet, time and again, you find yourself in situations where leadership is required and everyone defaults to you. You’re often misunderstood, especially within faith environments where the contemplative is honored while the Type I (that’s you) is encouraged to “calm down.” But what if we dared to embrace our divine wiring rather than water it down? What if others learned how to encourage and empower the Type I people in their lives?
BEING PETER is designed to do just that as we reflect on the life of the original Type I, Peter. Learn how Peter cultivated his gifting so God could release his uniqueness to have a tremendous impact. Jesus didn’t require that Peter surrender his bold and aggressive nature. Instead, Jesus gave Peter permission to be who God created him to be.
