Merge: How to Enter in To Win

This book is about how to come in the right way. It's about how to step into a new place in a way
that benefits not just you, but everyone involved. It's about understanding that no matter how
gifted, skilled, or anointed you are, your success in a new environment is not just about what you
bring-it's about how you integrate.
I have seen incredibly talented, brilliant people enter organizations with the ability to transform
them for the better. But they failed-not because they weren't capable, but because they didn't
come in correctly. They came in too aggressively, too defensively, too arrogantly, or too timidly.
And just like that athlete's heart, they were rejected-not because they weren't needed, but
because the body wasn't prepared to receive them.
This book will guide you through a step-by-step process to help you integrate into any new
ministry, business, team, or family in a way that creates mutual success. You will learn:
- How to enter wisely so that your presence is a blessing, not a disruption.
- How to understand the culture, vision, and key players before trying to make an
impact.
- How to build relationships that create trust and favor.
- How to offer help without being seen as a threat or a know-it-all.
- How to adapt and be flexible while staying true to your values.
