Great Leadership Book !!!

I love to read about leaders and how can we help this world like many leaders have done. This book is a great gift to make us learn about Leadership and how can we help and be a great leader in our every day life. This will be the perfect gift for Christmas or the Hollidays. It change my life.

Great Leadership Book!!

No Im not the Author! but in the hispanic world many people have the name Carlos and last name Rivera. This was a gift for the holidays and the first thought in my mind was another leadership book on how to be Super Man in life or how to be the next world leader with a few steps. It is not your average Leadership book this book is great. First you learn about other leaders with example of there life and how leadership is a work in progress. You can make your own list of leaders is very nice not to put in your face that this is what makes you a leader with no options. Any age can read this book, I gave it to my daughter and she told me that she had fun and learn about leadership and about the leaders in the book. Great Book!!

Best Leadership book in a long time!!

I am a big fan of Oprah and the books talks about true leaders and she is really one of them. The life of all the leaders this book talks about is very educational for the reader. I did not know how much I would learn reading this book. This Holiday was the best gift I gave people they all love it and you too.

Great leadership compilation!

I really recommend this book to anyone looking for real leaders examples. One thing that is unique in this book is that that it depicts not only past leaders that we all know and agree they were real leaders (George Washington, JFK and Winston Churchill), but in addition, it characterizes current people that are among us, that certainly represent excellent leadership models (e.g., Lance Armstrong, Bill Gates and even Pope John Paul II). I was surprised to learn so many details that I didnt know about many of the current leaders described here. But the most amazing thing about the book is that the author was able to describe these leaders as all having four characteristcs in common, and detailed how they excelled in each one of them. I have read many leadership books, but very few can have the impact of this one.
