This book is easy to read and is broken down into three sections: The Insight, The Inspiration, and The Application. The reader will learn over fifteen principles in being a leader of quality from humility, responsibility, and trust to faith.

"The world needs positive stories about familial relationships, hope, and promise created by great parenting, regardless of race or ethnicity," says the author, and this book offers this and more. It was not only these words that sold me and created within me an appreciation of the essence of the material contained but also how the author delivered the information was key. Did you know that in various aspects of our lives we're all managers and leaders? To be effective in these roles it takes creativity, open-mindedness, and willingness to lead even when it's difficult.
