I almost hate to admit it--Chopra has birthed so many cliches--but I really enjoyed this book. Not only that, I was inspired by it. So much so that I'm considering picking up copies for my coworkers. It's not that he says anything new; it's that he is very good at summarizing eternal truths and creating "action lists" out of them, without dumbing them down. Highly recommended for anyone who is wrestling with questions of power and leadership, and wants a deeper approach to handling the

I really enjoyed and was inspired by this book. So inspired, in fact, that I'm going to buy myself and a few friends our own copies; it's not just for managers or leaders, but good guidelines and suggestions for life. Chopra is not necessarily saying anything new, but he pulls together a roadmap with actions items that gets the mind - and soul - paying attention.

The art of leadership is explored in the small but powerful book. Deepak Chopra breaks leadership down into an anagram:
Look & Listen, Emotional Bonding, Awareness, Doing, Empowerment, Responsibility, Synchronicity.
The last chapter is two examples of leaders who follow this style and how they are changing the world

Not only is this a wonderful book for upper management, it provided some very interesting ideas and exercises for becoming the manager of your life, or whatever your sphere of influence is. This book is so much better than most of the business management books out there, and I think every manager should be required to read it!

Definitely the kind of book you want when in an upper to middle management work setting, which I am not, so it didn't really speak to me directly. But after thinking about it a while, the self told stories in the end of the book about how Icebreakers clothing and another nonprofit organization got started was really quite interesting.

I enjoyed the book, but I really think it is geared for upper managers. Sure, there are kernels of truth and exercises that will benefit any reader...and it is a good foundation for those that aspire to lead and be leaders among their peers. But I know a few managers that could seriously be impacted by reading it now.

Chopra of course offers sage advice on leadership, but I found this lacking in the really, raw and incisive observations for which I was yearning. A good summary of some timeliness principles, no doubt, but not an earth-shattering treatise on leadership large or small.

I found Deepak Chopra's book a little dull. I already know and practice things he suggests like "disagree but do not hold a grudge." He states "everything comes from the soul" is the same as "everything comes from your subconscious mind" that Dr. Joseph Murphy details in his great book.

This is such an incredible, little book. I'm actually going to buy it and read it again. If you want to be a conscious, awake and intentional leader...in any aspect of your life...you have to read this book.

This was decent information being delivered, and while Deepak's words themselves can often be inspiring, his accent actually makes the audiobook less valuable. He is difficult to follow. At the same time, I was expecting more from the guts of the book. These ideas seemed to be on a very basic (maybe obvious) level. I felt like I was finishing it just to get it over with.

A rehash of the old ideas. All done in the hour it took me to take the train back home. Not much meat, and nothing new to write home about.

A lot of strong ideas, a thought provoking look at leadership. I will think of this one frequently as I felt very much in agreement with the emphasis of leadership qualities outlined in this book.
