From the rear cover
Praise for The Truth About Leadership
"This book cuts through the clutter and reminds us of what really matters. The introduction alone is worth the price of the book."
--Patrick Lencioni, president, The Table Group, and author, The Five Dysfunctions of a Team and Getting Naked
"The leadership truths Kouzes and Posner lay out have not only endured the test of time but are even more relevant now in a world transformed by Twittering Millennials. Buy copies for yourself, your boss, and also for the up-and-coming leaders of your organization."
--Charlene Li, author, Open Leadership, and founder, Altimeter Group
"Elegant in its simplicity and powerful in its depth, The Truth About Leadership dazzles.... This is that one-in-a-million book that serves to pull an entire field together for the reader. No matter how many books you've read on leadership, you will better understand each of them after reading this remarkable book."
--Colonel Tom Kolditz, PhD, professor, US Military Academy at West Point, and author, In Extremis Leadership
"This is a book every leader should put on his or her nightstand and read a chapter a night."
--Stephen Almassy, global vice chair, Ernst & Young Global Limited
"Regardless of your experience, age, generation, or life stage, The Truth About Leadership will remind you of the vital role leaders play in our lives, renew your interest in understanding what makes a leader great, and rekindle your desire to be an inspiring leader yourself."
--Lynne Lancaster, coauthor, When Generations Collide and The M-Factor
"The Truth About Leadership provides some of the best practical advice on leadership I've read in a long time. If you have not read Kouzes and Posner and you manage people, shame on you. Start here. If you have read their work and your workplace needs a shot in the arm, you'll find this book a quick, engaging jewel that will help you become a more trusted, credible, and valued leader."
--Adrian Gostick, author, The Carrot Principle
