Baron trying to show Moses's Leadership qualities. I felt its fair. Simply Perfect!!!!

As Manager or Employee we can learn more leadership qualities from MOSES, Simple things which we use to forget in our day today life. Found few good lines

"The Better You (as Manager) Know about your people (Team/Employees), the more possibilities you'll see"

Tomorrow's leaders are often found in today's willing minority. Eg. JOSHUA & CALEB

Great hook, with each chapter uncovering layers of human and leadership qualities in events surrounding Moses' life as well as many valuable real-life examples of business leaders' observations as they relate.

Each chapter title caught my attention, but the content in the chapters did not do much for me. It was a good mix of spiritual and business management tips, but I don't recommend this one!

So many times the author gave credit to Moses for creating or thinking up solutions when according to Scripture it was God Who had given the instructions. There were some good points made about management.

Its a blend of spiritual morals and business motives, Splendid book.
