Walker Prince ====== Future Leadership Models 119 Roderick Muller Book Review: Leadership: Essays on Being a Great Leader As a businessperson, I am glad there is a publisher whose sole focus is on business. Skymill Publishing's latest book is a great one for leaders in all industries. Joan Cristophe has sought out some of the world's best minds to write essays for this book that will provide readers with some unique perspectives. In her own introduction, she argues that there is a greater need than ever before for more effective leaders in business. Cristophe expertly arranges the essays in this collection so that the voices of each author complement one another. The essay by Xiaofeng Li is the perfect example of this. It is strategically sandwiched between Francisca Conde's essay on leadership in action and Ron Blake's essay on focusing on the details. Roderick Muller's essay is the sole disappointment. Surprisingly little new information or insight is offered on its pages, and the writing style is rather flat. Besides that, the collection is excellent, and readers with an interest in leadership in many different situations will find useful nuggets of wisdom and vision within.
