I share this book with people I admire and respect
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
I envy you if you have not read this book yet. No... I am not connected to the author in any way other than I admire and appreciate his work.It's essentially the unintentional notes of an old man who is no longer among us. Unintentional because... its a collection of essays that he wrote to himself. I don't think he had any intention of sharing his private thoughts, doubts, and musing.If you are questioning the path in life you have taken, going through a rough time in your life, or simply want to know what real strength is about... you'll appreciate this book.Greenleaf's observations are penetrating and will definitely cause you to examine your own life. You'll either love it or hate it... depending upon how strong and just what kind of leader... you really are.I have shared this book with several C-Level friends.
