Title: Basic Leadership Principles with Excellent Examples
Product review: This book was an enjoyable, practical and applicable read. Phillips outlines a number of basic leadership principles and uses relevant examples from Abraham Lincoln's time as Commander in Chief during the Civil War. This book will be enjoyable both for Lincoln fans and those looking for basic concepts of leadership.The book is broken down into four areas: People, Character, Endeavor, and Communication with sub-chapters that further support each area. Each sub-chapter is synopsized with summary bullets called "Lincoln Principles" that highlight the cogent thoughts of that section."Lincoln on Leadership" is a good primer to provide a basic overview of leadership principles, and will not be useful for teaching about advanced leadership topics. However, Phillips' use of relevant examples from Lincoln's life made the book applicable to a number of leadership scenarios and made this book very enjoyable.
