The freedom of any society is directly related to the
quality of books that are widely read in that society.
And in a society like ours where we are desperate for more leaders
at all levels, truly excellent books on leadership are vital to freedom.
I don't usually recommend books in this daily email, but I
recently read a book on leadership that everyone simply must read.
I've read
Woodward's books before, so when this one arrived in the mail I put away
everything else and read it straight through.
It kept me up most of the night,
and it was so worth it!
This is a fabulous book on leadership.
It outlines 13
resolutions every person should make in our modern world, and gives specific
helps on how to turn them into habits.
Indeed, this book could be titled The 13 Habits of Success and Happiness for
Everyone.
The stories and examples from great leaders of history and
current events are moving and uplifting.
I literally have never read a better book on leadership than this one.
It
is on par with the great leadership works like
Good to Great, The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, Acres of
Diamonds, A Message to Garcia, Theory of Constraints, The E-Myth, Cashflow
Quadrant, Leadership and Self-Deception, The Radical Leap, One Minute Manager,Rascal,and
Emotional Intelligence.
It is truly a revolution in leadership books.
If you are only going to get one book on
leadership, this is the one.
I can't wait to read it again--more slowly this
time--and take notes and turn what I read into goals and practical application.
What a great book.
Our whole society
needs to study more about leadership, and apply what we learn!
