I personally know of several good people from over the years who were promoted into leadership because they exceled at their work, only to struggle because they didn’t have the skills and experience as leaders. As the authors point out, leadership is a learned skill. And so this book is a practical resource for anyone who is a new leader and/or is interested in exploring leadership – a starting point, to delve into the important skills needed for leading. And if you are already a leader and just need a good review, this is for you too.

I especially appreciate that the book promotes leadership as a skill to be practiced; so read the book, and flex your leadership muscles!

I am A Child Youth Care Counselor and have had a 28 year career. Leadership is a topic I have taken seriously and try to teach those that I have been blessed to serve. This book is a new way to understated leadership and may even challenge some of your own ideas. This is a great break down with concrete examples and explanations.

This was a well-thought-out book. I enjoyed the bullet points at the end of each chapter making it easy to find any quick reference I need to look up. I like how it started with me and then went on into the real life situations of the workplace environment. I was also surprised at how well the military and the workplace were identical. It was an easy read I really enjoyed it.
