Short Description:

Please don’t put this book down if you think that it may not be for you because you don’t think of yourself as a leader. The one thing that keeps people from becoming better at leadership is this exact belief. You may simply have not bought into or accepted this idea yet. For some undiscovered reason, we so easily accept the leadership of others, but don’t really buy into our own. Hang on to the book; I will convince you otherwise.

On the other hand, if you do see yourself as leader, I humbly invite you to consider an approach to leadership that could be of value in assisting you to develop your own personal philosophy of leadership. Unless your leadership is grounded in your own authentic leadership beliefs, you will remain vulnerable to the curved balls that the world throws at leaders. We cannot afford to lose one more leader to the challenges posed by uncertainty, hopelessness, greed, power and sex.

An investment in leadership is an investment in yourself. So whatever you decide you are, read this for your own sake. Life is short; we should not allow a single day to go by without having had, or having brought joy.
