Learn Like a Leader

Each year, a group of best-selling authors, thought leaders and management experts, among them James Collins, Peter Block and Spencer Johnson, meet to explore leadership and share their defining moments. As this annual meeting of the minds became a tradition, one theme quickly emerged: great leaders seize the opportunity to learn, over and over again. These remarkable stories form the basis of Learn Like a Leader, a close look at why some people are overcome setbacks, attain fulfillment and soar to the top, while others never fully reach their potential. The book offers powerful lessons reflecting key learning moments in the lives and careers of each of the contributors. Learn Like a Leader portrays the power of storytelling in teaching, training and mentoring. 'A remarkable collection of inspiration, wisdom, and insight from the true luminaries in our field. The lessons shared in this book are not to be missed!' Marc Effron, president, The Talent Strategy Group 'The greatest leaders in history have understood the power of stories for developing themselves and others. And this book distills decades of leadership wisdom through insightful and inspiring stories. Every leader should have this book.' Mark Murphy, chairman and CEO, Leadership IQ
