Have you ever been afraid to say what you think because of how others may react?
Is it possible to have differing viewpoints and still be friends with someone?
If you’ve ever:
What if I told you there are two ways to live: Easy Hard or Hard Easy?
Would you rather live an easy life now-eat whatever you want, buy whatever your heart desires, avoid the tough conversations that can come with true human connection-and deal with the consequences
later?
In Don’t Just Manage—Lead! you’ll learn what it takes to become an effective leader, someone who will help guide and motivate others to achieve success.
Arthur F. Coombs III, speaker, author and CEO, provides the most comprehensive and authoritative account of a true leader’s life and career. Loaded with heartfelt, real life experiences of what it takes to lead thousands of employees, Coombs presents his journey from business student to corporate CEO.
With these real-world examples, he shows how true leaders can influence behavior, shape goals, and encourage the very best from others.
The sixth US President, John Quincy Adams, a man who knew a lot about effective leadership, maintained that the most successful people were those whose actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more, and become more. These people were the ones who entered the fray, who left the sidelines, who threw themselves into life. They were the ones who forged a nation and achieved the impossible. They were the ones who truly connected to life, to others, and to themselves.
Today, the world needs human connection more than ever. It needs people who strive for the deepest relationships, not just surface recognition, who come at life with the enthusiasm, energy, and excitement that bind people together. These people have a powerful impact on all around them.
This book combines fresh perspectives, experience, information, and personal stories into a simple formula that will result in rich connections as you live, laugh, learn, love, and lead those who mean the most to you. It is my hope that by reading it you will begin today to live the authentic, abundant life that’s out there for you, as you build and shape the connections that will change everything.
