Synopses & Reviews
Using the success of founding and leading GiANT Impact, Jeremie Kubicek explains how to become influential by overcoming your walls of self-preservation and leading others to higher levels of influence that benefit you and those you lead.
Anyone can make an impact through influence. It is the most potent professional asset on the planet. The problem is that influence is also the most underused asset on the planet. And the primary reason is that the enemy of influence is a universal human trait: self-preservation. If leaders are too concerned with protecting their status and reputation, they limit their opportunity to forge open and honest ties with others. Leadership Is Dead shows how leaders who are genuine—who give themselves away—have the greatest influence and are the most successful in their work. Truly, the more you give, the more you receive.
With confidence and trust in company leadership at an all-time low, Jeremie Kubicek’s tested-and-proven concepts will show readers how to restore faith through the importance of relationships—and how to avoid the self-defeating and selfish approach commonly used by the leaders of today. Leadership Is Dead is a veritable roadmap to future success.

Review
"Goodrich is brilliant at depicting doggy emotions, whether it is the deeply embarrassed Zorro, content Mr. Bud, or suave Dart. As in the first installment, the book is well designed, with ample white space surrounding the all-small-caps font and bright images. Whether shared one-on-one or as part of a dog-themed storytime, this book is sure to please existing fans of Mr. Bud and Zorro and create new admirers of these charming pups."--andlt;iandgt;School Library Journalandlt;/iandgt;
