Frogs Matter Most: A Parable About Taking the Personal and Professional Leadership Leap

by Jack R. Christianson, Ron M Tracy

Using the power of parable and storytelling, authors Jack R. Christianson and Ron Tracy deliver powerful lessons on leadership.

Some people believe that profitability and getting the work done is most important. We call these people managers. Others decide that people are the most important consideration. Taking care of their people is the most important thing and the bottom line is secondary. We call these people mentors.

Leaders must choose both. They must get things done while valuing the people around them.

Join Mike and Brad as they journey the path to success, discovering the roles and responsibilities needed to become more than a manager or mentor. By following the advice of a frog named Bob, they learn how to become true leaders.

The premise is that it really doesn't matter who/where you get good leadership training from (i.e. a talking frog in a pond), there can be interesting points to be found. It was okay if you could get past the talking frog. The leadership strategies are tried and proven and very good - I just really wonder why not write a straight-forward book without all the fluff.

This book is interesting. I love the content, the premise is easy to understand and the tips are meaningful. My main complaint with it is how juvenile the writing is, this book simply isn't well written or a pleasure to read. However, it's full of interesting takes on leadership and I would recommend it to anyone looking to improve there leadership skills.
