Summary
In this short, easy-to-listen fable, best-selling author Mark Miller reveals five habits that underlie leadership character and that determine a leader's success - and he teaches leaders how to develop these habits.
Like Miller's previous books, this one follows the life, learning, and influence of Debbie Bruster. Here she finds herself mentoring Blake Brown, the son of her former mentor. Rather than answer Blake's questions about leadership directly, Debbie introduces him to other leaders, each of whom shares a unique perspective on what really makes a leader successful. As Blake puts the pieces together, he discovers his problem is not one of skills but of character - that leadership is more about the heart of the leader than the head or hands. In fact, Miller summarized these traits with the acronym HEART: Hunger for Wisdom, Expect the Best, Accept Responsibility, Respond with Courage, and Think Others First.
With the help of his new friends and mentors, Blake is able to build a plan to transform his heart. The good news is that leadership is not just the purview of the few - it is within reach for millions of aspiring leaders around the world.
This book is the road map they need to get their lives and careers on track.

Love it
It is very easy to listen to. The narrator is quite good. It is funny for me when reading the dialogues and speaking trying to resemble a female's voice.
The message is clear.
Very good.

Great introductory book for aspiring leaders!
I like the fact that the book was as a short story.
It was very interesting and inspiring.
I don’t know how valid the points are ( from a scientific/ business field) but there are certainly helpful!

Eye opener
I enjoyed the storyline and lessons in this book. It simplifies a lot of Leadership styles and explains what truly is a servant leader in a very nice way.

loved it, really intresting concept
I've listened to many many management leadership books, however loved to concept of a "story" rather than just talking on a specific topic

Good principles
Good basic tips and principles. I like that it was put to an actual situation that many could identify with. However I didn’t enjoy the narrator, he sounded robotic with no character.

Wow! What an eye opener!
I wish I listened to this 10 years ago! Finally ‘get’ what leadership is and understand that I have been focused on the 10% top of the iceberg and missing the important part on leadership character!
