Synopsis

In this short, easy-to-read fable, bestselling author Mark Miller reveals five habits that underlie leadership character and that determine a leaders successand he teaches leaders how to develop these habits.

Like Millers previous books, this one follows the life, learning, and influence of Debbie Bruster. Here she finds herself mentoring Blake Brown, the son of her former mentor. Rather than answer Blakes questions about leadership directly, Debbie introduces him to other leaders, each of whom shares a unique perspective on what really makes a leader successful. As Blake puts the pieces together, he discovers his problem is not one of skills but of characterthat leadership is more about the heart of the leader than the head or hands. In fact, Miller summarized these traits with the acronym HEART: Hunger for Wisdom, Expect the Best, Accept Responsibility, Respond with Courage, and Think Others First. With the help of his new friends and mentors, Blake is able to build a plan to transform his heart.

The good news is that leadership is not just the purview of the fewit is within reach for millions of aspiring leaders around the world. This book is the road map they need to get their lives and careers on track.
