    Solid list, John Maxwell is pretty good, among others.

    Have you ever read The Leadership Challenge by Jim Kouzes and Barry Posner. Given the other books on your list, I think you’d like it.

      That is one of those foundational leadership books – I really enjoyed that. It was a challenging read but so much packed in it. I would also recommend it as a must read for any leaders.
