[Jessie · Rating 5 out of 5]

I really enjoyed this book and the author's way of expressing her concepts, the sharing of stories, and her presentation of a different way to lead teams; it is quite unique.

There is so much beauty, understanding and wisdom here for any leader, even for those who want to lead a family, or acquire self-mastery. Also, Judy Brown's poems fit right into the theme of the book.
