It's all about people!
Okay, forget the fact that Robert Hargrove's book mentions my book and my thinking, and for that i'm flattered. But this book is an excellent guide and mentor, and it takes a point of view I think is essential for success today. I'm excited about E-leader because it points out the importance of PEOPLE in any business. In fact, the title is misleading in that you can apply his principles to any business any time, with or without an Internet approach to business. It's clear, fun to read, and has hundreds of great ideas to try. Most of all, it has the right overall message - you don't lead your customers, they lead you.

A New Leadership Paradigm for the 21St Century:
An excellent, fast paced read, and a must for every CEO and executive; e leader is about a radical paradigm shift for leaders in the 2lst century. It shows that the real secret of the internet is not e commerce, but the dramatically enhanced ability of leaders to juxtapose people with different talents in a way that result in exciting, thrilling breakthrough solutions. e leader speaks of a number of radical shifts every business person needs to make in 7 powerful and profound chapters: from stewardship to entrepreneurship, from top down to lateral leadership, from game player to game changer. (There are specific guiding ideas,methods and tools for each of us making these transformations.) The powerful lessons in these chapters are interspersed with special interludes of e leaders who have discovered the principles above not in an academic class room, but in action-leaders who revealed a new possibility came up with a a clear businessvision and transformed it into reality. I couldnt stop writing notes in the margin as I read this book as their were numerous applications to me and my company. Several times Robert Hargrove's provocative writing style not only stop and made me think but get up and look in the mirror with respect to my own leadership possibibilities, learning edges, breakdown places, and growth spots. This book is clearly a major contribuition to leadership in the 20th century and definitely a triumph for its noted author Robert Hargrove.
