<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>(Previously published as It's Not About You)<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><b> "I met last week with your leaders," Ben began. "I heard what they had to say. And you know, they make a good point." He paused. <i>Take charge, Ben</i>, he told himself. <i>Take control</i>. He looked around the conference room. <i>Take, take, take</i>. Was that really what he was here to do?</b> <p/>With their acclaimed bestseller <i>The Go-Giver</i>, Bob Burg and John David Mann proved that a heartfelt parable could also express a powerful idea. In <i>The Go-Giver Leader </i>(originally published as <i>It's Not About You</i>), they offer an equally compelling tale about a struggling small business and the ambitious young executive trying to lead them to a crucial decision. <p/>Allen & Augustine has manufactured high-quality chairs for decades. Its people take pride in their work and feel loyal to their owners and management team. But this revered company is now at a crossroads, hurt by a tough economy, foreign competition, and a cash crunch. The air is filled with the scent of uncertainty, anxiety, perhaps even panic. <p/>Into this setting enters Ben, who's been assigned by a larger firm to promote a merger that will rescue Allen & Augustine. Ben's facts are undeniable: the chair maker can either merge and modernize or go bankrupt and vanish. So why can't he persuade anyone to buy in, from the CEO on down?<br>Will Ben find a way to sway the employee shareholders before the climactic vote? And can Allen & Augustine survive without losing its soul? The answers may surprise you as you follow Ben on his journey to understanding that the path to genuine influence lies less in <i>taking </i>leadership than in <i>giving </i>it. <p/>This revised and updated edition includes a new introduction, a discussion guide, and a Q&A with the authors.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"We should all seek to practice the message illustrated so elegantly in <i>The Go-Giver Leader</i>--that great leaders don't try to act like 'leaders, ' they strive to be more <i>human</i>." <br>--<b>Simon Sinek</b>, optimist and author of <i>Start with Why</i> and <i>Leaders Eat Last</i> <p/>"This book captures the essence of life and leadership.
