Why Read Leadership Lessons and You: From A-Z?
There are countless books about leadership. This book takes a different approach.
Instead of presenting leadership as one complicated theory, Leadership Lessons and You: From A-Z breaks leadership development into 26 memorable lessons.
The A-Z structure makes the book easy to explore and revisit. You can read it from beginning to end or return to individual lessons when you want to think about a particular leadership challenge.
The goal is simple:
Learn a leadership lesson. Reflect on it. Consider how it applies to your life. Put the idea into practice.
Stew Bolno draws on his experience leading teams, facilitating seminars for executives, consulting with leaders, coaching and mentoring, and teaching college-level students. The result is a concise leadership resource designed to encourage practical thinking rather than simply presenting abstract concepts.
