Description
Thousands of people serving their communities have discovered surprising things about leadership: it’s much more about listening than directing, more about learning than knowing, more about willingness to deeply challenge themselves than any special inborn qualities—and that grasping all this is a rewarding practice that never ends. This is their story.
Advance Praise
“Right now, we need stories of courageous leadership—and the guidance they offer — more than ever. The powerful lessons in this work can help each of us build our strengths. Thank you!”
Frances Moore Lappé | Small Planet Institute
“Many of us find it difficult to move out of our silos, if we even think of doing it at all. This book explores ALF’s unique process for helping leaders understand how to bridge divides, create new networks of unusual allies and help generate new thinking around system stalemates.”
C.S. Park | Director, Seagate Technology
"Everything We Know About Leadership serves to remind readers of one of the most important lessons I have learned: a true leader has agreed to accept the challenge of leading. Too often what we call leadership is following from the front.”
Annise Parker | Mayor, Houston, Texas
“Everything We Know About Leadership is inspiring, textured, and authentic. It gives the reader a lived sense of how the tension of difference fuels growth in leaders, how true dialogue is forged in contemplation, and how the historical context surrounding the founding of the American Leadership Forum seeded the launch of class after class of participants. Anyone interested in renewing their experience as a leader, those ready to put an end to the isolation that can come with achievement, and people primed for substantive hope of what 'we' can accomplish will find themselves in this book.”
