"One of the best leadership books of the year."
-strategy+business
Leadership is the art of transforming how people think, feel, and
act. Though some experts make it seem complicated, it really has
only two elements: what you say and what you do. And according to
Alan Deutschman, most leaders focus too much on words and not
nearly enough on setting an example.
Deutschman profiles a wide range of leaders (in business,
education, the military, and nonprofits) who always walked the
walk, especially when times got tough. In a skeptical world, that
gave them more credibility than even the best possible
speeches.
Deutschman also shows the devastating consequences of not walking
the walk, even on seemingly minor matters. Consider how the CEOs of
GM and Chrysler hurt their chances of a government bailout by
flying their private jets to Washington.
The eye-opening examples in Walk the Walk will inspire leaders at
all levels.
