Review # 1 was written on 2013-03-09 00:00:00 Jerome Swan I was certainly not excited to be assigned reading from this book by my principal as the school year began. It was just one more thing I did not have time to do. As a campus, we were assigned some beginning readings, and then suddenly, the book was never mentioned again. But, I pulled it out during spring break and really began to dive into it. Pellicer outlines some simple rules to being an effective and moral leader. He emphasizes that good leaders don't just do the right things, but they have to genuinely care for the people they lead and continuously reflect on how their decisions affect others and the organization. That all sounds very heavy, but really, the chapters are short and often include fun little stories that Pellicer connects to his overall theme. And of course, reflection is key. This book is great for anyone who serves in any leadership capacity in any type of an organization, although it was originally written for those who work in schools. The lessons and reflective questions contained in its pages are great for anyone striving to grow as a leader and a person.

Review # 2 was written on 2020-06-15 00:00:00 Jason Sparks This was a very insightful book! I was required to read this for graduate school for a class called Education in a Modern Society. It provided great insight on what a leader is and how they should care about leading and who they're leading. This book is geared for anyone who's a leader in any capacity, where it's a board director, professor, department chair, CEO, principal, GM, or anyone who desires to lead in any capacity in their lifetime. Highly recommend because it provided suggestions and had personal anecdotes to make it more interesting.
