A concise, practical volume that identifies seven basic imperatives for effective leadership: be sure, be focused, be humble, be discerning, be complementary, be uncompromising, and be encouraged.
Author Joseph Robinson Jr. draws these imperatives from the life and character of the biblical wild man, John the Baptist, and then offers concrete illustrations of those characteristics at work in the lives of contemporary leaders, both religious and secular, from Mother Teresa to Michael Jordan, from Pastor Tony Evans to Coach Tony Dungyas well as characters from movies such as Mr. Holland's Opus, In the Heat of the Night, and Coming to America.
The result is a common language and universal framework for discussing leadership in any setting.
