This is a very good book. I enjoyed it. It just took forever to read because I kept stopping to write down notes. That's probably not that bad of an issue though all things considered.

Another worthy Brian Tracy book with important ideas of leadership. I listened to this book as I hiked, biked, ran, and folded the laundry for my wife. Totally worth my time.

Part of my interest in listening to this book was in anticipating the arrival of our new head of school. Not only that, but my school has an outdoor leadership program and also embraces character development. Finally, I believe that all people have the ability to be leaders. With a book like this. They do!

Some possibly common sense advice (e.g., know what your goals are), but hey, common sense isn't so common. If you like the blurb, check it out.
Easy reading. Includes action items / questions to ask yourself to prompt self reflection (and, hopefully, development).

solid

This is a pretty solid introduction to leadership principles. It is focused pretty exclusively on business so it is less helpful for other areas, but it's good stuff.
