A leader's legacy

In this book, the authors explore the question of leadership and legacy. They examine the critical questions all leaders must ask themselves in order to leave a lasting impact. These essays are grouped into four categories: significance, relationships, aspirations, and courage. In each essay the authors consider a thorny and often ambiguous issue with which today's leaders must grapple issues -- such as how leaders serve and sacrifice, why leaders need loving critics, why leaders should want to be liked, why leaders can't take trust for granted, why it's not just the leader's vision, why failure is always an option, why it takes courage to "make a life," how to liberate the leader in everyone, and ultimately, how the legacy you leave is the life you lead.
