The Managers Guide to Becoming a Leader is about service leadership, its philosophy is twofold, first that projects can be managed but people should be led, and leaders aren't born they're created. The book focuses on improving oneself as a person and as a leader. No single book, or series of books, could cover every contingency leaders face, fit every organization, and answer every leadership question. However, a way of thinking, a leadership thought process can be shared. Leaders who have an employee centric, influence based, leadership belief system can face most management obstacles and find the opportunity in them. If you, the reader, take nothing away from this book other than how service leaders think-I will be content, and you will be a better leader.
