Debbie, a struggling leader, finds herself about to lose her job due to poor performance. In desperation she enrolls in a new mentoring program offered by her company. To her surprise, the mentor is company president Jeff Brown. Debbie decides that all she needs is the answer to one question, “What is the secret of great leaders?” She’s sure that if Jeff will tell her, she can apply the secret in her leadership. Over the next 18 months Jeff explains to Debbie that the secret is rooted in an attitude — becoming a serving, rather than a self-serving, leader. Great leaders, he says, see and shape the future; engage and develop others; reinvent continuously; value results and relationships; and embody these values. This engaging book by a renowned business writer uses a simple parable format to teach an invaluable lesson in leadership for anyone in a position of authority, whether at a multinational corporation or a neighborhood volunteer group.
