Title: The worst leadership book ever written.
Review: The author needs help. He committed only to a four year study on leadership from some bureaucratic corporate stuffed shirts and wonders why their not inspiring leaders. Leadership is a 10,000 year study,read the bible. Leadership is ones ability to influence others not create committee's. Badaracco managed to squeeze in real leadership traits in with bureaucratic ones as if to substantiate the claim. One knows that most managers and leaders are uninspiring that's why most corporations eventually fail and people change jobs like underwear. There are a lot of books out there, some are complete hype with a catchy title others like this propose to reinvent poor leadership traits in with good ones as if its something new. Don't waste your money. Read some of the old books on leadership and success like the Bible, and get Jim Rohn's The Art of Exceptional Living (Audio)(he has a list of must read books).
