This is a great foundational book. I've been a manager for 4 years unfortunately in an environment with little training for the job. I wish I would've read this book when I started managing. It is an awesome foundational book that shows the difference between managing and leading. I've already read the 21 laws and the 5 levels. This is another great read. While some of the content is shared across the books, I would say start with this and then go to the 21 laws. Oh and if you think "I'm experienced already" this book will hold a mirror to your leadership style. It's worth a read to see what type of manage you really are!

Very practical advice! Helps with both self reflection of your leadership skills as well as how to treat others when you are in a leadership position.

Great read. Numerous examples and plain speaking are the main things I liked about this book. I feel like I highlighted the whole book!

Fabulous

Great leadership book! Like all of John's books this one is inspirational and challenging. It helps to put first things first and like always adds lots of stories to give context to the lessons.
