Taylor, October 17, 2008

This book really impressed me. I liked Palmer's style of writing, which was direct and to the point, but also very approachable. His use of anecdotes to explain his various experiences, both good and bad, with different styles of leadership also made me very comfortable with the subject material of the book. Additionally, he wasn't afraid to use the stories that other leaders had to offer.

However what really makes this book work is Palmer's diverse experiences with different styles of leadership. From his suggestions about academic leadership, to the rigors of being and entrepreneur, to corporate leadership, Palmer shows what works and doesn't work in each style of leadership.

This is a very valuable book for anyone who wants to be a leader or is a manager. Additionally, it is useful for entrepreneurs and small business owners who want to gain insight in how to best direct their efforts when deciding to lead others. Pick this up book and you'll get some good perspectives to consider in your journey to succeed with your business.
