I truly enjoy how I can read one of his books and when I have finished, I have learned some type of life lesson to obtain in my future.

Leadership has been defined in a variety of ways, there are multiple authors and theorists who have tried to define and understand leadership, all leading to varying theories and conclusions, but one thing that is universally understood is the importance of effective leadership and how someone with good leadership skills can impact so many people around them.
