Solomon On Leadership: Life coaching and leadership maxims from a king.

Book two in a series of life coaching themes based on Solomon's Proverbs.

Leadership is a frank discourse on the core values and character qualities that define effective leadership. Topics include contemporary notions about hypocrisy, deception, use of power, and professional risk taking.

Solomon's Proverbs are nested under character qualifies that define effective leadership: Truth and Trust, Knowledge and Discernment, Plans and Deeds, Mentoring and Encouragement, Humility vs Pride, Sexual Seduction, Industry and Wealth. Sections are editorialized with leadership maxims focusing on core values that are foundational to beliefs about the worth and value of others.

Quotes
Leadership skills are rarely acquired through textbook study or classroom instruction. The attributes, qualities, and core values of effective leaders are best learned and put into practice when leader aspirants are mentored by or otherwise exposed to proven leader talent.

Authority, power, and position have an overreaching tendency to inflate ego; keeping a right self-image tempers pride.
Accountability is a step-up quality that is always exampled.
Doing the wrong thing, even exceptionally well, is of no value.
Subordinating personality likes and dislikes is part of the job.
Connection and/or position often afford the inane and unworthy a place at the table.

For Leader aspirants of all faiths and persuasions.
