“This is focused on an under-represented viewpoint in leadership, that is so needed today to systematically create change, opportunity, and advancement. Not only is this great for companies, organizations and those in leadership, but a great resource for anyone involved in the review, assessment and evaluation process. I am actively applying these practices to my own leadership and hope to influence others through the philosophies in this book.”
