Solid list, John Maxwell is pretty good, among others.
John Maxwell is absolutely the best I’ve known for years.
A good starter for 10 list.
How about shoving up some reviews of them?
Have put some reviews on as posts. Plus now I am on to a new list of books http://leadershiptests.co.uk/2008/07/30/a-change-of-season/
Wow, this is a great list of books.
Have you ever read The Leadership Challenge by Jim Kouzes and Barry Posner. Given the other books on your list, I think you’d like it.
That is one of those foundational leadership books – I really enjoyed that. It was a challenging read but so much packed in it. I would also recommend it as a must read for any leaders.
Het Julian – thanks for buying my book and reading it! Appreciate that a lot and hope you got something good from it. Tom Rawls
