Summary: weLEAD Book Review by the Editor of leadingtoday.org
Comment: Wess Roberts is best known for his previous best-selling book, Leadership Secrets of Attila the Hun. Perhaps to use the title of "author" for The Best Advice Ever for Leaders is a slight overstatement. What Wess has done is to compile a book of over 800 quotes that he feels will help the reader to discover and develop the various traits of leadership. Many books of quotations have been written in the past. However, Wess has created one especially for leaders. Thoughtful, and some rather unique quotations are offered on various topics from accountability through worry.
The main purpose of the book is to examine the opinions of a vast array of leaders that transcend geography, cultural and historical boundaries. As the author states in his introduction, "The Best Advice Ever for Leaders takes this approach by collecting ideas from a vast range of leaders from virtually every walk of life, every part of the world, and every era of human history." The goal of this book is to study leadership with an open mind, knowing that not every quotation is meaningful to every circumstance, place or time.
You will find quotations from individuals as diverse as Lao-tzu, Mark Twain, Lee Iacocca, Irving Berlin and George Washington. Special credit should also be given to Wess Roberts for providing footnotes after each quote to help us understand who the individual was, and a small segment about their life, so we can put their quotations in a balanced perspective. Most of these quotations are rare and seldom to be found in other publications. Here is an example under the topic of Disposition...
"Keep your fears to yourself, but share your courage with others."
-Robert Louis Stevenson, 1850-1894, Scottish essayist, poet,
and novelist. Stevenson was called to the Scottish bar but
never practiced law. He is the author of Dr. Jekyll and
Mr. Hyde, Kidnapped and Treasure Island
