I’m doing some research about great leaders for my next book. One of the resources that I read is a little book entitled Greatness by Steven F. Hayward. It’s about the leadership lives of Winston Churchill and Ronald Reagan. It’s a fascinating read on the parallels of the leadership styles of these two men. Whether […]
