Title: The Leadership Test: Will You Pass?
Author: Timothy R. Clark, Ph.D.
Stars: *****
This short book is long on wisdom. It’s about a young man named Marcus
who is wrestling with the decision to remain an individual performer or to
accept a promotion to his first leadership position. Fortunately he has a
wonderful mentor in his former high school teacher, Izzy, who guides him and
administers the leadership test. There are no crib notes for this one. Marcus
needs to reach deep inside himself for the answers. If you have any interest in
leadership you should take the test as well. It will make you think and re-think
your calling.
The author does not mince words. He acknowledges that the pass/fail ratio of
the leadership test is not good, but he provides a crystal clear roadmap for
what it takes to be a true leader.
Keep a pen handy when you read this one. There are so many valuable
morsels, you will find yourself underlining passages on nearly every page.
