The Leadership Challenge

I recently acquired the book, "The Leadership Challenge" by Kouzes/Posner along with the journal. Here's the opening lines:

"The Leadership Challenge is about how leaders mobilize others to want to get extraordinary things done in organizations. It's about the practices leaders use to transform values into actions, visions into realities, obstacles into innovations, separateness into solidarity, and risks into rewards. It's about leadership that creates the climate in which people turn challenging opportunities into remarkable successes."

With over 400 pages, it's not a quick read, but with an opening 'graph like that, it has my full attention. More later, I'm sure.
