There are different styles of leadership, but in every case, the result is the same: one person organizing a group of people to achieve a common goal. After describing three different styles of leadership, author Mike Adams gives 40 tips designed to help a leader be more successful. Some of my favorites:* Get in touch with your own leadership style.* Never forget you are a role model.* Nurture the growth of your team.* Never fear taking risks.* Embrace change when it's needed.* Know your limitations and accept them.* Love your team.It's a short book, and it doesn't break any new ground for managers and leaders who have been through leadership training, but for a brief introduction to the subject, there are some useful ideas that potential leaders may find valuable.
