Reviews

"One of the most brilliant, original, and exciting leadership books I've read in a long time. On top of all that, it will be the most useful and concise book on leadership you'll ever read!"
--Warren Bennis, Distinguished Professor of Business, University of Southern California, and author of Still Surprised: A Memoir of a Life in Leadership "With this compact handbook, Mike Useem provides leaders what they all say they want and need but rarely get: a kick-in-the-pants reminder of those parts of the job they have neglected. The boss is now forewarned."
--Steven Pearlstein, Washington Post business columnist and moderator of the On Leadership website "Leading an enterprise comes down to a set of enduring principles, and The Leader's Checklist compellingly captures the most vital. Michael Useem has written the essential companion for anybody whose leadership is on the line, a concise primer for corporate liftoffs and controlled landings."
--Ram Charan, advisor to CEOs and boards, and coauthor of the bestsellers Execution: The Discipline of Getting Things Done and The Leadership Pipeline "A tightly written and superbly designed publication, The Leader's Checklist reads like an adventure yarn, but packs a goldmine of scholarship and tested observations, that surrounds a list of fifteen principles that guide and teach managers to make on-target, effective business decisions, under real pressure."
--Blogcritics "Leaders often work well by operating on gut instinct, but at times they need to reflect on their actions and their consequences. The Leader's Checklist can refresh a leader's sense of purpose as well as invigorate his or her calling to lead others."
--John Baldoni, SmartBlog on Leadership "The Leader's Checklist is a tightly written 15,000-word book that gets to the point quickly. It may well set the bar for quality writing and amount of content for other business-related digital books in the future....The book is beneficial to those professionals in a leadership role of any kind, including teachers, nurses or any type of professional."
--Patricia Faulhaber, Suite101
