Book Recommendation: Courage – the backbone of leadership

Courage: The Backbone of Leadership

     Here’s a great book I read in the last few weeks. Courage: The Backbone of Leadership by Gus Lee.

     This is a great book about what it means to have courage in challenging situations (like confronting a conflict). In this book, Gus Lee gives a great model for what he calls “courageous communication” for addressing what can be delicate issues with both courage and tact.

     I recommend this book highly.
