EAGLE OF THE WEEK

John Knicely

What do you get when you mix all-natural pet shampoo, five family members with very unique giftings, and a mission to provide for the poor around the globe to the glory of God? The answer is the Cosmos Corporation, headquartered just outside St. Louis, Missouri.

But first you need to add 4+ decades of business grind. That includes near bankruptcy, product launches that flopped, and countless nights sleeping in minivans on sales trips. Throw in chemical product innovation and heart wrenching personal tragedy. Now you start to get the full picture of The Cosmos Legacy: He Who Builds Little by Little Makes it Grow. 

Don Kassebaum Sr. closed his barbershop in 1979 to start a business with the vision of funding work for God’s Kingdom. Since his heart was to glorify God, surely it would be a smooth path, right??? Far from it.

Cosmos now offers hundreds of products across multiple brands sold in 43,000+ retailers throughout 70+ countries. At a glance the business story may now seem like rainbows and puppy dogs, but the Kassebaum family will be quick to tell you that’s not the whole story. In this hour-long Legacy Project documentary the family pulls back the curtain and shares the highs, the lows, and how they kept their eyes on the Lord through it all. They explore critical business lessons learned and how God revealed Himself along the journey.

Don Sr. and his four sons point to the words from Proverbs 13:11, “he who builds little by little makes it grow.” 

As the producer of this project and a business owner myself, I can tell you those aren’t the words I want to hear. My flesh says “I want it all and I want it now!” Producing this project has been a huge blessing to my team in so many ways. 

On behalf of the Kassebaum family and my production team, we hope it inspires, encourages, and challenges you. You can watch the full 1-hour Legacy Film with this link. And for a taste of the full project, check out this 3-minute story on how God opened “Door #4” when every other door slams shut.

Oh, and the story behind the story is dripping with elements that point to how God is bigger than our understanding. Check out our podcast interview with Hill’s Angel, Derrik Kassebaum on the making of the Cosmos Legacy as we pull back the curtain on this project. In fact, Derrik is the one who introduced me to Tom Hill. And here we are now 2+ years later. God is good!

BOOK OF THE WEEK

The Motive: Why So Many Leaders Abdicate Their Most Important Responsibilities 

by Patrick M. Lencioni

Shay was still angry but shrugged nonchalantly as if to say, it’s not that big of a deal. “So, what am I wrong about?”

“You’re not going to want to hear this, but I have to tell you anyway.” Liam paused before finishing. “You might be working hard, but you’re not doing it for the company.”

“What the hell does that mean?” Shay wanted to know. Knowing that his adversary might punch him for what he was about to say, Liam responded. “You’re doing it for yourself.”

New York Times best-selling author Patrick Lencioni has written a dozen books that focus on how leaders can build teams and lead organizations. In The Motive, he shifts his attention toward helping them understand the importance of why they’re leading in the first place.  

In what may be his edgiest page-turner to date, Lencioni thrusts his readers into a day-long conversation between rival CEOs. Shay Davis is the CEO of Golden Gate Alarm, who, after just a year in his role, is beginning to worry about his job and is desperate to figure out how to turn things around. With nowhere else to turn, Shay receives some hard-to-swallow advice from the most unlikely and unwanted source―Liam Alcott, CEO of a more successful security company and his most hated opponent.

Lencioni uses unexpected plot twists and crisp dialogue to take us on a journey that culminates in a resolution that is as unexpected as it is enlightening. As he does in his other books, he then provides a straightforward summary of the lessons from the fable, combining a clear explanation of his theory with practical advice to help executives examine their true motivation for leading. In addition to provoking readers to honestly assess themselves, Lencioni presents action steps for changing their approach in five key areas. In doing so, he helps leaders avoid the pitfalls that stifle their organizations and even hurt the people they are meant to serve.

We are privileged to host Michael Harmison, the esteemed Mayor of Osage Beach, whose unique journey from business to politics reveals his devotion to the region's growth.

Visualize a new Marriott Hotel, an indoor water park, multiple dining options, 200 public boat slips, and a 1,000-space parking garage.

But this isn't just an exciting entertainment venture; it's also a potent catalyst for economic growth. The Oasis at Lakeport is projected to create over 500 jobs and draw half a million visitors to Missouri, significantly boosting one of the state's leading industries – tourism.

STRETCH YOURSELF

Hold onto your yoga mats, because we're excited to bring a touch of Zen to the 64th Eagle Summit! We're thrilled to announce that Dr. Maureen Hughes, an esteemed authority in Yoga and Ayurveda, will be gracing us with her insights and expertise. You are going to feel like a new human!

And before you think we're going to turn you into pretzels, don't worry! As some of us may agree, the best part of yoga is that moment of tranquil relaxation where we get to lie down and do absolutely nothing. If that's the only position you master during our summit, then you're already a yoga pro in our books!
