Books by Richard Higginson

 
Christian entrepreneurs are at the heart of the church's mission. They are dynamic, innovative followers of Christ who are making a major contribution to our society through the companies they run, the products they make and the people they influence.
Richard Higginson argues that, rightly understood and applied, faith can be an enormous power for good - stimulating enterprise, reducing poverty, promoting integrity, ensuring sustainability and fostering discipleship.
Differentials in pay are a matter of major controversy, especially at times of cutbacks such as were triggered by the global financial crisis of 2006-8.
Many important questions of life concern business, but too often they are left unanswered. Richard Higginson concentrates on the tough and complex issues that confront businesspeople every day.
Is the world of business competition a jungle where anything goes, or should competition be exercised with constraints?
Good leadership is a priceless asset in any organisation. This book brings insights from biblical Christianity and modern management theory together in a creative and lively way.
Called to Account sheds fresh light on many ethical dilemmas which confront the conscientious businessperson, bringing Christian theology and business practice together in an exciting and imaginative way.
