Publisher's summary

Leadership legend Ken Blanchard teams up with Randy Conley to share the most essential lessons on servant leadership and building trust from the heart of his leadership model.

Effective leadership comes down to implementing everyday, common-sense practices to help organizations thrive - and yet so many leaders are still missing these fundamental principles from their personal and professional lives. Renowned business experts Ken Blanchard and Randy Conley disclose the simple truths about leadership they have gathered over their long and distinguished careers to help bring common sense into common practice.

Featuring two sections - servant leadership and building trust - this book is a collection of Blanchard’s greatest hits. It is chock-full of profound and memorable (and in some cases counterintuitive) leadership wisdom, such as:

• Create autonomy through boundaries.
• People who plan the battle rarely battle the plan.
• A relationship with no trust is like a cell phone with no internet. All you can do is play games.
• The most important part of leadership is what happens when you're not there.

This book will help listeners incorporate these integral practices into their leadership style, build trust through servant leadership, and make a difference in their own life and the lives of those they influence.

a nice short book which could be used as a workboo

This book is a selfhelp book and will help you to get a step more integrated man. it will teach you how to serve the society as a leader.
i learned that books such as this are not the right format for me in audio. this is more of an workbook and thus for me to realy get something out of it i need to take pen and paper and answer the questions in a way when i write. That way i get much better results and remember things.

Excellent Read with Practical Application!

This was a great read that I’ve shared with multiple colleagues and requested be required reading for leaders at our organization. Easy to digest and the option for hard copy book or audible adds flexibility for those with limited time to still engage. The Discussion Guide provided at the end is a great way to get people thinking about it and actively using the tools. Highly recommended.
