Letters from Leroy: Personal Reflections on Leadership Development

By Leroy Barber

What if leadership didn't start with a title, but with showing up?

Letters from Leroy is a powerful, faith-rooted guide for emerging leaders who are ready to move beyond survival and step into purpose. Written as a series of deeply personal, pastor-like letters, this book speaks directly to those navigating leadership from the margins-especially young Black leaders, community builders, and anyone carrying both vision and wounds.

Drawing from lived experience, Scripture, and cultural wisdom, Leroy Barber explores what it truly means to lead with dignity, character, courage, and resilience. Each letter addresses real-world challenges-owning your story, healing while leading, having courageous conversations, resisting clout culture, building community, and executing vision with discipline and faith.

This is not a book about perfection or platforms. It's about integrity over image, purpose over survival, and faith that shows up even when the road is hard. Each chapter concludes with reflection and journaling prompts, making this book ideal for personal growth, group study, mentorship, or leadership development settings.

If you've ever wondered whether your story matters, whether your pain can become purpose, or whether you're truly called to lead-Letters from Leroy reminds you that you already belong, and that leadership begins the moment you decide to show up.
