This is a real estate primer for C-suite executives who are new to real estate, executives who started in e-commerce but have moved into brick and mortar, wholesale brand executives establishing retail stores, and private equity investors. Real estate is specialty retail's largest asset, largest liability, largest use of capital, and largest expense category. Real estate decisions, even for moderate-size chains, commit tens of millions of dollars in capital and future lease obligations. Great real estate can significantly leverage results and poor real estate choices can derail all other best efforts.Steve Morris has spent more than 25 years helping specialty retailers improve their real estate supply chain with business service solutions that include analytics, deal negotiation, store design and construction, lease administration, and technology. In this book, he teaches you how execute a real estate strategy for successful, profitable, and sustainable business.

Having fled his home city of Liverpool and left with precious little time to escape his unpredictable father; Danny and his mother end up in a safe, rural corner of Shropshire. It seems to be yet another ''fresh start'', but little does Danny know just how different it will be this time around. This most recent of moves will either make or break him. Working hard to forge a different reputation for himself, Danny tries to get things right. However, a chance finding of a long-forgotten drum - coupled with an encounter with a ghost from a bygone era - lead to an extraordinary sequence of events, as Danny concludes his last year at primary school before moving on. He will need every ounce of positivity and resilience that he can draw on, as things look likely to unravel in spectacular style. Danny is tested to the limits by new acquaintances, as well as figures from his past returning to complicate matters further. With the clock ticking, he needs to quickly piece the jigsaw together and it''s not just Danny who needs everything to fall into place! There''s far more at stake than that... A story for ten to twelve years-old children which perfectly complements the transition between primary and secondary school. Steve Morris has spent the vast majority of his career - twenty-three years and counting - in primary education. From class teacher to headteacher, Steve has worked in a variety of primary schools across the north-west of England and Shropshire. He''s especially passionate about encouraging children to read and write, both for the sheer enjoyment of it and the escapism it can offer. Steve is married and has two teenage children. He enjoys nothing more than getting out regularly on his bike, exploring the beautiful Shropshire countryside. The Distant Beat is his debut novel.

Advent is a time of reflection. We wonder about the great theme of darkness and light. We think about what it is to have faith, and to be peaceful and joyful, even when the world seems a dangerous and unreliable place. And we look again at the extraordinary claim that the God who made the heavens came among us as one of us.Based on the Lectionary readings for Year B, these daily thoughts include reflections on beautiful poems, prayers, explorations of Bible verses and questions to ponder.Challenging, thought-provoking and inspirational, these daily reflections will help us to think, pray and be aware of God's presence in new ways this Advent.

In What Size Balls Do I Need? Coach Steve Morris delivers a perspective injection for parents and coaches trying to navigate the $17 billion youth sports industry. The pressure to choose programs that will position budding athletes for success and glory can be all-consuming. Teasing that "our sons and daughters have a better chance of owning a professional team than playing on one," Coach Steve gives parents permission to relax and focus on the fun within the "ten-year window" of their kids'' participation in sports. Using the wisdom gained from navigating thousands of girls and boys and their parents through the gauntlet of youth sports, he has created a book filled with humor and personal stories that tackles crucial topics like:Why "potential" and "expectation" are the two dirtiest words in youth sportsHow to recognize a toxic coach and the steps to take to protect your childWhy we need to rethink our definitions of victory and successThe most precarious part of the game - the ride homeThe dangers of living vicariously through your child (and how not to be that parent)Who gets to the "next level" and how do they do itWhat the post-Covid landscape of youth sports will look likeCoach Steve seeks to tame the national frenzy surrounding youth sports and return sanity, balance and fun to the one arena where everyone gets to be a kid.

An engaging look at how our life stories can enable us to tell the gospel in a way that connects effectively with people. Jesus was the master storyteller, powerfully relating accessible stories to convey the good news, and Steve Morris calls us to reclaim the art of storytelling in the church today. In a world of increasing social fragmentation and loneliness, this book demonstrates how listening to others can be transformational. When we truly hear people's stories, we begin to feel wonder at life and the way God is at work, and those telling their stories start to feel a sense of belonging. Inspiring stories are grounded by practical ideas to put storytelling at the heart of the church, and questions in each chapter encourage us all to glimpse more of God, revel in our uniqueness and realise that we all have something unique to offer as his followers. Underpinned by practical pastoral experience, this is a book full of quirky and unexpected life stories that open us up afresh to the beauty of life and our God.
