I’ve never taken less time to read 60 pages. Time flew by. The book is brief, is written concisely and is never boring. Thanks to targeted quotes at the beginning of each chapter as well as examples, the reader can directly transfer the knowledge into his own work life. This book is a MUST for every budding and experienced leader, in order to prepare for upcoming duties and to be self-reflective.

There are plenty of libraries about leadership. However, this book asks “what does a good leader do, what does he/she not do” and goes straight to the essence of the subject. I recommend the authors Valentin and Plesser and their impressive and brief guideline – whether you are a leader or not.
Christian Graulich
Concise, clear and easy to understand. This book about leadership is very much worth the read. I hope this book will be read by many!
