Description
Who better to write about leadership than a world-renowned CEO known not only for his business skills but also for his life of faithful integrity? Drawing on decades of executive-level experience running a Fortune 300 company, Bill Pollard, chairman emeritus and former CEO of ServiceMaster, offers insight into what it takes to thrive—both professionally and spiritually—in the high-stakes, high-pressure world of corporate America as well as in the home. Reflecting on life-changing encounters with influential leaders such as Peter Drucker, Warren Buffet, and Billy Graham, Pollard invites readers to learn from his own successes and failures, sharing tips and principles for leading well and pleasing God.

Advance Praise
“‘The heartfelt counsel of a friend is as
sweet as perfume and incense,’ says Proverbs. The wisdom available in
this book bears just such an aroma, the pleasant fragrance of counsel
dug from a life’s worth of experience as a Christian leader. The Tides of Life
is a written version of some of the things I learned from Bill Pollard
as we worked together at Wheaton College, the value of which is marked
by how often I find myself passing Bill’s insights on to others. I
highly recommend giving this book a close reading.”
—Duane Litfin, President Emeritus, Wheaton College
“This book is vintage Bill Pollard—full of intellectual challenge and ideas, affirming a strong faith yet not dogmatic, based on a lifetime of integrating faith and business while practicing servant leadership. A must for anyone in business.”
