The S.O.U.L. Plan is a step-by-step framework for business leadership and financial management that’s been proven to bring life-giving, light-filled power and purpose to business ideas and the world of business.
The three objectives of the S.O.U.L. Plan are foundational elements of your business-planning process:
Create wealth and bring glory to God by S.O.U.L.-planning your business.
