Great book! 2008-07-02
This book is stellar! I highly recommend for anyone in a leadership position or anyone who will one day be.
Leadership Simplified 2008-06-14
One of the greatest books on leadership out there. A simple to the point story that teaches skills not taught in most business schools today.
Leading with the Heart 2008-04-21
Having read many leadership books, this is one of the best in teaching how to lead with your heart. It's well-written, easy to read, and paints a challenging, yet rewarding picture of leadership that requires devotion and commitment of oneself above and beyond all else.
Great book 2007-12-31
Have bought 3 of these books for different friends and they have all enjoyed it and passed it on to others.
A great primer for managers with little leadership training 2007-12-18
Based on a friend's recommendation, I began using The Way of the Shepherd as a primer for new leaders in my organization. It uses a very simple construct for teaching-through-storytelling about how to be a "leader" and not a "boss". That construct is tending sheep.
It does not imply at all (as I was concerned about) that all of the front-line employees are rudimenatary herd animals... rather, it calls the leader to a higher level of personal responsibility for the well-being, safety, and activity of the workgroup.
I've read hundreds of leadership and business books over my career - many of which are outstanding - and this is the one I always start a new leader with. It's short, it's easy to read, and it communicates all the right things.
