Comprised of short chapters and true stories from his extensive coaching work, countless mentoring conversations with young professionals and his own candid personal experience, Practical Virtue highlights over 25 virtues the author has identified as defining virtues essential to contributing to his own success and the leaders he works with every day. His heart for mentorship is on clear display within each page. “My hope,” Hain shares, “is that early career professionals will work through each actionable chapter having learned invaluable leadership skills, experienced personal growth and picked up life-changing virtuous habits.” Here’s what others are saying about Practical Virtue:

The Blueprint to a More Purposeful Way to Live and Lead
11th Book by “Essential Wisdom for Every Generation” Author Shares Practical Insights to Spark Meaningful Growth in Leaders of All Ages and Stages.
Atlanta, GA – October 1, 2024 – Do more with less is the mantra for today’s global economy. When the goal post keeps moving and budgets continue to shrink, the life of a leader can feel similar to that of a hamster wheel. The first items typically cut from any schedule gasping for time are those critical one-on-ones with direct reports and even more critical time spent in self reflection, but this is a costly mistake. Randy Hain’s newest book, Becoming a More Thoughtful Leader, challenges the status quo of a “just get through the day” mindset and urges leaders to slow down in the midst of the workplace whirlwind. This counter-cultural philosophy is the foundation of the author’s 30+ year business career and the place from which he draws the best practices and insights found within each chapter.
Randy Hain is founder and president of Serviam Partners and co-founder of leadership consulting firm The Leadership Foundry. Inspired by countless executive coaching conversations with leaders around the world, coupled with his own successful career, Becoming a More Thoughtful Leader taps into Randy’s unique reflective style to offer actionable insights on a host of relevant leadership topics. “My hope,” Hain shares, “is that readers of this book will not only become better leaders, but also better and more thoughtful humans.” Here’s what others are saying about Becoming a More Thoughtful Leader:
“You are worth the investment. This book will help you realize the amazing gains in that investment with stories that will touch your heart, and tools that will change your life. Enjoy the read, embrace the possibilities!”
— Chester Elton, Best-selling author of The Carrot Principle and Leading With Gratitude
“Becoming a More Thoughtful Leader is a compelling reminder that leadership is not just about being in charge but about taking care of those in your charge. For anyone committed to being a better leader, both for themselves and their team, this book is an essential read!”
— Camye Mackey, EVP & Chief People, Diversity and Inclusion Officer for the Atlanta Hawks
and State Farm Arena
“In Becoming a More Thoughtful Leader, Randy explores the core traits that distinguish great leaders from good ones, focusing on self-reflection, active listening, empathy, mentoring, and leading by example. The book emphasizes emotional intelligence and relational leadership over traditional methods, urging leaders to prioritize self-awareness and personal growth. This book serves as an invaluable guide for leaders seeking to make a lasting impact on their teams and organizations.”
— Juan Perez, Chief Information Officer for Salesforce
As author Andreas Widmer states in the book’s foreword, you don’t have to sacrifice KPI’s, customer satisfaction or social impact measurements to become a more thoughtful leader. In fact, you’ll notice a renewed sense of vigor as your team feels more connected, engaged and cared for. This subtle challenge to be more reflective about your own growth as a leader and more thoughtful about investing in your colleagues at work transcends short-term measurements for long-term impact. Embrace the challenge to invest in yourself and others.
Becoming a More Thoughtful Leader was published by Serviam Press on September 18, 2024 and is available for purchase now on Amazon.

Redefining Success in Today’s Hectic World
Tenth Book by “Upon Reflection” Author, Randy Hain, Provides Actionable Advice for the Overwhelmed and Overburdened
Atlanta, GA – October 19, 2023 – Recent global events, growing inflation and increased political tensions have birthed a new level of anxiety for the average household. As the price of gas and groceries rises, so does our blood pressure. According to a 2019 study by two Harvard psychologists conducted with 2,250 adults, 47 percent of every waking hour is spent "mind wandering." Simply put: the world is full of distractions. Perhaps these outcomes can be attributed, at least in part, to our conflicting feelings when it comes to matters of the heart. If our definition of success is based on the number associated with our bank account, the outlook may seem grim. If purpose can only be seen in our “crystal ball” of the future, our vision may blur. Randy Hain’s new book “Being Fully Present: True Stories of Epiphanies and Powerful Lessons from Everyday Life” seeks to take the pressure off, illuminating the true path to contentment.
Randy is founder and president of Serviam Partners and co-founder of leadership consulting firm The Leadership Foundry. While he is known for his thirty-plus years of senior leadership, executive coaching and consulting experience, Randy is also a devoted husband, loving father and man of faith. He combines the two – leadership and faith – in this new book to inspire and challenge readers to more thoughtfully examine how they see the world, engage differently with the people they encounter, and seek to learn helpful lessons from situations and challenges they face in daily life.
“Being Fully Present” is an eclectic collection of thought-provoking stories. Themes readers will encounter range from the joys and challenges of modern parenthood to finding value and helpful lessons in the struggle of everyday life. Readers will also gain valuable insight through the stories of how to better serve and help others by being more fully present. Here’s what others are saying about “Being Fully Present”:
Life can move fast if we let it. Randy Hain reminds us that being fully present means slowing down so we don’t miss the best parts of life.
—Ellen Twomey, Managing Director of Fugitive Labs, Mother, Wife, and Friend
Hain closes each story with reflection questions perfect for personal journaling or meaningful discussions with friends and loved ones. “Being Fully Present” is a treasure chest of wisdom and points to what’s important in a world filled with distractions.
—Andrea Chilcote, Founder and CEO of Morningstar Ventures and Author of What Leaders Need Now
Randy’s collection of timely personal stories reminds us that “success” in common terms doesn’t automatically produce meaning and a well-lived life. Infused with hard-won wisdom, Randy uses his own story to help you find the deeper meaning in your everyday life and work.
—Andreas Widmer, author of The Art of Principled Entrepreneurship and The Pope & the CEO
The perfect gift to celebrate Thanksgiving and the Christmas holidays, “Being Fully Present” inspires frequent reflection and a mindset of continuously “mining for gold” from daily life and favorite memories.
“Being Fully Present” was published by Serviam Press on October 15, 2023 and is available for purchase now on Amazon.

Book Release: Essential Wisdom for Leaders of Every Generation
Randy Hain, award-winning author, executive coach, and leadership consultant, releases his eighth book as a practical guide to leadership at any age and stage.
ATLANTA (Oct. 1, 2021) – Time is a valuable resource in our busy world, and accessing helpful, practical and actionable best practices is of great interest to today’s business professional . Randy Hain, award-winning author, executive coach and leadership consultant, had this in mind when writing his newly released his book, Essential Wisdom for Leaders of Every Generation (Serviam Press, ISBN: 1737724405, $15.99 on Amazon). A highly consumable, practical guide to accelerating personal growth and professional development, Essential Wisdom offers useful insights at every age and any stage along one’s career journey.
Hain is founder of Serviam Partners, a premier executive coaching and leadership development company serving some of the best-known companies across the globe. He drew on his 30 years as a highly sought-after executive coach and leadership consultant as well as his personal experience as a husband, father, and leader in the community to pen a practical guidebook for readers from all walks of life to navigate their individual leadership journeys, regardless of their professional experiences, age, or culture.
“This book covers many defining aspects of leadership ranging from discerning your moral compass and practicing candor, to better time management and defining your legacy,” said Hain. “I didn’t set out to write a contrived book on what makes a good leader but pulled from my firsthand experiences working with diverse and dynamic groups of individuals over the years. I’ve seen people experience challenges with the topics covered in Essential Wisdom, and it encouraged me to write this for anyone from new professionals to established leaders seeking to elevate their game and excel at business and life.”
Patrick Lencioni, New York Times bestselling author of The Five Dysfunctions of a Team and The Ideal Team Player said this about the book: “Essential Wisdom is not something you can read and digest in one sitting. Every section, every chapter, is to be taken in thoughtfully so it can be applied practically. Because what Randy Hain has put together here is as practical as it is truly essential. This is a gem.”
Essential Wisdom is filled with anecdotal experiences and helpful tips meant to inspire new ways of thinking for leaders and aspiring leaders. It touches on several themes including the importance of establishing meaningful relationships, improving candor, embracing authenticity, and focusing on the legacy you want to leave behind.
