Why Leadership Sucks(TM): Fundamentals of Level 5 Leadership and Servant Leadership (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780988405301)

What if you could decrease your stress and flourish? What if the wisdom you need to succeed with your team or your boss is within your reach?

The good news is, leadership can also be one of the most rewarding and fulfilling endeavors.

What if you could enjoy the rich rewards of leadership, and handle the challenging times with grace and ease?

It sucks because real leadership is hard, requires selfless service, and because the buck stops here.
