People do change. Scott writes about a wide range of topics with this theme common to all. With intention and grace we can change for the better. As individuals, family members, team members, and leaders we learn from both success and failure. As he write about how individuals and organizations grow and change the topic ranges from individual healing to leadership, to process improvement. Dr Ellis’ goal is that each book results in before and after pictures that delight the reader.  He writes as lead confessor to failure, consumer of grace, and avid seeker of improvement. Scott’s Christian faith underlies all that he does and while he does not often preach without invitation, he endeavors to live, counsel, coach, and teach based on the principles of intention and grace.
