BUY THIS BOOK, NOW!

Finally, a book has come along that can truly make you a better leader. Over the years, I have bought a plethora of leadership books and this is the first one that is not just a rehash of the same old material. The authors provide sound arguments as to why a SUPERLEADER approach to leadership is the ultimate form of leadership. And they do not stop there. They also provide the reader with a detailed description of the steps necessary to practice SUPERLEADERSHIP. If you want to learn how to lead yourself as well as lead others, then this book is a must for your library.

This book rocks

This book is the Holy Grail of leadership principles, as far as I'm concerned. If I could just sneak a copy into my boss's mailbox... The thing I like about it is that it gives you real concrete examples of how you can give subordinates max freedom (and thus max satisfaction) while maintaining your goals as a leader. The only problem is I just cringe whenever I go to work and see my superiors violating the principles of the book. I am amazed this book hasn't sold more copies.
