While reading some of the reviews posted here, I ask my self, how is it possible none of these people mention some example with negative connotation? Practically it’s impossible to achieve success all of the time as leader. But, I have to agree with the majority here, that this collection of experiences and suggestions, put well together by Mark Victor Hansen is very helpful. At least you can be relieved of the stress by learning only from your own mistakes. As a part of a military organization, where most of the leaders are also followers, I am somehow forced to consult opinions from experts. I find the part with the self-improvement and building the self confidence more useful, with more consistent effect. On the other hand, not always the methods for inspiring the subordinates are productive as expected. The enthusiasm of the personnel can lasts for a short term, no matter how fluent speaker you are, or how motivational the speech is. Earning the trust of the employees is more essential then just throwing words, but it takes a lot of time. Anyway it’s good to release the pressure from your chest, by communicating with friends. Thanks.
