Description:
History's most admired leaders were people of character. They earned the trust and respect of others not only through their actions, but by the depth of their spirits and their ability to live out strong personal principles. Though many try to attain these leaders' greatness by developing their skills or mimicking their personal traits, it can't be done -- because character is not what you do, it's who you are. Who you are is a matter of who and what you allow to influence you.
Expand description
This engaging, illuminating guide invites leaders to think long and hard about the importance of being open to influence, and about who and what they will allow to influence them. The authors assert that no leader can maximize their innate potential by developing only performance-based skills and abilities -- the "short ladder" to success. Instead, they encourage leaders to begin from profound humility and to build enduring relationships with colleagues, family, friends, and God that will enable them to weather the true tests of leadership.
This life-altering book maps out a clear path up the "long ladder" to success, using compelling real-life examples to show how we can grow into our true potential as leaders.
