Tools and Resources

The From Building to Blessing Tools and Resources page is a place where you’ll find some of what myself and some of my colleagues and friends and have produced over the years.  We trust that you might find something encouraging or helpful or simply interesting.

We’re updating and adding regularly with the intent of contributing some good thought, useful concepts, and practical tools to the journey of an impact entrepreneur.

Consider it always a work in progress.

This book is a collection of articles written by Ralph Gatti, a seasoned CEO, who hoped to share a unique point of view each month that was a little bit out of the mainstream of the day-to-day business communications.
