In search of a model of legitimate leadership

Welcome back!

I have been looking for some good material on leadership that makes sense. Something that squares with what I have experienced and seen to influence people in a positive way. I witness an excess of poor leadership--bullies pushing people around; I'd like to see something better than that.

I found this book hard to start--too much like a tract trying to convert me to something I already believe and the print type and graphics made it hard to read on an airline seat with poor lighting.

After all of that, I got into it, and found some gems worth reading and sharing with others. I read "A Devotional on Successorship" at a recent meeting, emphasizing the importance of teaching a new generation to be leaders and helping them fit into structures before us old guys are gone.



What do you recommend?
