This is not a book about gaining authority or getting more from your team. It is about accepting the privilege and responsibility of influence. Leading others will require your time, attention, courage, and humility. You will be stretched. You will make mistakes. People will occasionally disappoint you, and you will sometimes disappoint them. But when you learn to lead with integrity, kindness, and purpose, you create something far greater than individual success. Designed for busy professionals, each chapter can be read in just five minutes and ends with questions that help you apply the lesson immediately. Whether you are leading your first employee, managing a growing team, mentoring future leaders, or preparing someone to take your place, this book will help you lead people with greater intention. Leadership starts with you. But its impact is revealed in the people who follow you. Now go lead.
