As a professional coach that has been fortunate to have worked with some very successful teams at the highest levels, I have had the word leadership re-defined for me on numerous occasions. The Everyday Leader is an excellent read that hits the mark on so many levels; it paints a clear picture on the importance of leadership in the 21st century, it provides real-world examples of ordinary people performing extraordinary tasks, and it is a commonsense example of how doing it right on a daily basis sets you up for success. I am in the leadership business and, at the end of the day, I believe people want to be led. The Everyday Leader is an authentic look at how living your life in accordance with a strong value system and having the courage to act can help you identify situations (however big or small) that provide leadership opportunities. -- Jay Woodcroft, Professional Hockey Coach

As a talent leader within a global organization, it is very helpful to find books like this one in the universe of literature that exists around leadership. The advice within the book provides rich and deep content while keeping the chapters short and to the point. As a reader, I felt very engaged by the relevant stories and examples provided. The book serves as a great reminder that most of us do business in a globalized world and, for me, added cross-cultural perspectives that many of us talk about in business conversations but find hard to quantify in our day to day practices. A solid read, highly recommended. -- Nick Bizic, Director of Global Career Management, American Bureau of Shipping
