About this audiobook
If you want your business or organization to run well, this leadership book, adapted from the Official Army Leadership Manual, is the book for you. There are three keys to being a leader: be, know, do. Who a leader is (values such as loyalty and integrity), what a leader knows (about the world, about her- or himself ), and what a leader does (action) are all vitally important for successful leaders.
