The Spirit of Leadership: Cultivating the Attributes That Influence Human Action

by Myles Munroe

You were born to lead. Now it's time to become a leader. Leaders may be found in boardrooms, but they may also be found in families, schools, and organizations of all kinds—anywhere people interact, nurture, create, or build.  Contrary to popular opinion, leadership is not meant for an elite group of people who, by fate or accident, become leaders while everyone else is consigned to being a lifelong follower.  After personally training thousands of leaders from around the world, best-selling author Dr. Myles Munroe reports that while every person possesses the potential of leadership, many do not understand how to cultivate the leadership nature and how to apply it to their lives. In The Spirit of Leadership, Dr. Munroe defines the unique attitudes that all effective leaders exhibit, explains how to eliminate hindrances to your leadership abilities, and helps you to fulfill your particular calling in life. "...a defining portrait of true and effective leadership. On these pages you will discover your purpose, your passion, and your potential to become the leader God has destined you to be."  —Pastor John Hagee, Cornerstone Church"[Dr Myles Munroe's] wisdom is to the believer what a phone booth was to Superman! Step into every page and be charged!"  —Bishop T. D. Jakes, The Potter's House of Dallas"The world is groaning in travail, waiting for the manifestation of those who will rise up as followers of God and leaders of men.... Dr. Myles Munroe will give you invaluable insight in your quest to discover and develop the spirit of a leader."  —Pastor Rod Parsley, World Harvest Church"Are you aware that God has ordained you to be a leader? In The Spirit of Leadership, Dr. Myles Munroe gives us the key to find the hidden leader within ourselves. I highly recommend this inspired book to all."  —Paul F. Crouch, Trinity Broadcasting Network"In The Spirit of Leadership, Dr. Myles Munroe taps into the core truths of authentic, successful leadership. Through decades of study and careful observation, Dr. Munroe has identified the key—the missing ingredient that activates the potential to lead found within every human being." —Marilyn Hickey, Marilyn Hickey Ministries

For my September reading I chose to read "The Spirit of Leadership Cultivating the Attributes That Influence Human Action" By Myles Munroe. The book covers different myths and truths about leadership. He shows that leadership isn't a way of being taught but about how you view yourself and your way unique way of thinking can make you a leader. The author shows that anyone can be a leader. I felt the book was quite informative, it was a way of leadership that I had never really heard of before and I enjoied it as far as self-help books go. I felt that it was a little repetitive, have gave a lot of similar exsamples. However it was not enough to make it bad. I think I learned a lot from this book.

Great

A spiritual approach to leadership unlike no other book I’ve read related to business. Munroe shows that the creator and the Bible give more advice on leadership and we have more power within, than we often think.

Key message of the book is that our thoughts create our realities. And that our attitudes are a key driver to our success.

Here are some of the gems that I have from the book. Nothing to spoil your appetite for this book though. Go ahead and read it for yourself and always remember to reread it.

- There is nothing as elusive as leadership.
- You can inherit a fortune but never leadership.
- Leadership is very hard to find lately.

Truth that challenges

This book shows that all humans were created to be leaders. It challenges us to develop the leadership spirit and serve humanity. It has a very different perspective from most other leadership views but it is a very refreshing view that we should embrace.

Yet another great book from Dr Munroe on leadership. "Turning followers into leaders and leaders into agents of change."
