Overview

Here are revolutionary leadership traits drawn straight from the life of the greatest leader ever, transforming how leadership is viewed and how leaders should be developed.

Lead Like Jesus highlights that Jesus is the greatest leadership role model of all time, that He mandated His followers to be servant-leaders, and also that there is no “Plan B” with Jesus. It elevates the growth and development of people in an organization from a means goal to an end goal that is of equal importance to the product and service mission of the organization.

The only reason I don't give it 5 starts is due to sound quality. This was recorded at some sort of seminar and they did a pretty poor job on some of the recording of it, although its not anything that will be too distracting. The content was very good. I have listened to and read a ton of leadership material and this book touched on some points I have never heard before. Any Christian should see themselves as a leader, since leadership is influence and we all should be trying to influence our world. So, this book would be very useful for any Christian in my opinion. Its also easy to follow along with. They have about 5 or 6 people who speak, so you get to hear a lot of different perspectives.

This book is good and it has some good points in it, but it is not a book, it is a confrence where people take turns talking about the same subject, putting in their point of view. If listening to confrences, then this is the book for you. But if you prefer books that are well oganized and put together, then you might want to look elseware.

This is a conference that involves many speakers and lots of material. The speakers are generally very good and have lots of information on leading like Jesus. The focus in on Jesus as the model for leadership and some of the speakers gave content to this theme and some told about their experience trying to lead like Jesus. Overall, very worth while listening.

Lasting!

The best thing I could say about this program is that it is lasting! Unlike a leadership program that you may inplement today and change tomorrow, this is one that should never change from your philosophy of how we should lead in our personal and professional lives.

This was wonderful and refreshing to listen to. I think every one should listen to it, not only Leaders, 'It's for everyone"

Seemed like a sermon more than anything. I expected it to be like Jesus, CEO but it was a service. However, the format did not take away from the principles that the authors were trying to get across. Would Recommend

Blanchard, Ken

Few people have impacted the day-to-day management of people and companies more than Ken Blanchard. A prominent, gregarious, sought-after author, speaker, and business consultant, Dr. Blanchard is universally characterized by his friends, colleagues, and clients as one of the most insightful, powerful, and compassionate individuals in business today.

When Ken speaks, he speaks from the heart with warmth and humor. His unique gift is to speak to an audience and communicate with each person as if they were alone and talking one on one. He is a polished storyteller with a knack for making the seemingly complex easy to understand.

From his phenomenal best-selling book, The One Minute Manager®, coauthored with Spencer Johnson, which has sold more than 12 million copies and remains on best-seller lists, to the library of books coauthored with Sheldon Bowles, Raving Fans®, Gung Ho!®, Big Bucks!, and High Five!, Ken’s impact as a writer is far reaching.

He wrote his latest book, Leading at a Higher Level: Blanchard on Leadership and Creating High Performing Organizations, with the founding associates and consulting partners of The Ken Blanchard Companies. This definitive "Blanchard on Leadership" combines more than 25 years of breakthrough leadership insights in one extraordinary book.

Ken is Chief Spiritual Officer of The Ken Blanchard Companies®, an international management training and consulting firm that he and his wife, Dr. Marjorie Blanchard, founded in 1979 in San Diego, California. He is also a visiting lecturer at his alma mater, Cornell University, where he is a trustee emeritus of the Board of Trustees. Ken is cofounder of The Center for FaithWalk Leadership, which is dedicated to helping leaders walk their talk in the marketplace.

Ken has received many awards and honors for his contributions in the fields of management, leadership and speaking. The National Speakers Association awarded him its highest honor, the "Council of Peers Award of Excellence." He was inducted into the HRD Hall of Fame by Training magazine and Lakewood Conferences, and he received the Golden Gavel Award from Toastmasters International. And in 2004 Ken was awarded with The Thought Leadership Award for continued support of work-related learning and performance by ISA—The Association of Learning Providers.
