    			  Because of the number of books I have read on leadership, I expect that some of the content of almost every leadership book will be duplicative of some other book I have read.  My standard is whether or not the book contains something new and valuable for me in my quest to be a better leader.  This book has it.  I was impressed with two areas of in depth material, that regarding the need for leaders to be in a give and take mentoring relationship, and the description of the types of leadership styles and how they relate to different types of followers.  Though this book is not specifically targeted to leaders of lawyers, the discussion about types of leadership styles, and the types of followers, really gave me some material to think about when it comes to the nature of lawyers, and why they are so  difficult to effectively lead with traditional authoritarian leadership styles.

    			  Excellent Book.  This book tells us that anyone in any position should seek an encore. Encores are not just reserved for those in the performing arts.
