Synopsis
Lincoln on Leadership is the first book to examine Abraham Lincoln's diverse leadership abilities and how they can be applied to today's complex world., The American Civil War was arguably one of the most chaotic periods in history. Yet through it all, Abraham Lincoln managed to keep the Union together and victorious. Here in this fascinating and invaluable book, Donald T. Phillips reveals the strategies, Lincoln on Leadership is the first book to examine Abraham Lincoln's diverse leadership abilities and how they can be applied to today's complex world. You think you have it rough? Only ten days before Abraham Lincoln took the oath of office in 1861, the Confederate States of America seceded from the Union, taking all Federal agencies, forts, and arenas within their territory. To make matters worse, Lincoln, who was elected by a minority of the popular vote, was thought of by his own advisors as nothing more than a gawky second-rate country lawyer with no leadership experience. What Lincoln did to become our most honored and revered president is history; now his wisdom and leadership philosophy can help you run your business. In Lincoln on Leadership you'll discover why you should: Seize the initiative and never relinquish it. Wage only one war at a time. Avoid issuing order and instead request, imply, or make suggestions. Once in a while, let things slip, unbeknownst-like ... and much much more.

Lincoln on Leadership is Inspiring!
I bought this book eight years ago as a first time sales manager. Something about it snapped my attention, although I really had no great expectations or extensive knowledge of Lincoln beyond what I had learned in school. I read it from cover to cover in nearly one sitting, yet I still keep it at my desk and reference it often for various situations. Leadership is taught, but no specifics can be taught. For Lincoln leadership came so naturally, from his sole - his genuine style a model of how all business leaders should behave is easily read, but difficult to master. Lincoln genuinely has something new to offer contemporary business and political leaders. The book is divided into four lessons; People, Character, Endeavor and Communication - Lessons are summarized in Lincoln events and stories that illustrate the lesson perfectly. Eight to 10 principals follow each summary - these principals are wisdom. Why would today's leaders be interested in Abraham Lincoln's leadership style and philosophy? Because, by modern standards, Lincoln's accomplishment would be regarded as no less than a miracle. There is no doubt that Lincoln is the greatest leader this country, and perhaps this world, has yet known. This little book is an excellent study in leadership quality, whether a parent, CEO, committee chair, sales professional, attorney, politician, or student council member.Read full review

A book for anyone who truly wants to learn how to lead others and be great!
I bought this book because I think Abraham Lincoln was a most terrific role model and human being! I've read many things about the 'Presidents' but this one intrigued me. I'll quickly admit that this was one of the most interesting books I've ever read! In fact, I liked it so much that I bought a few extra to give away. I even liked it enough to take notes and read it 5 more times! This is a book that teaches ethics, morals, how to deal with people who are oppositional, how to lead, guide and direct others, and how to be a leader and still show compassion and charity to others! A MUST READ!
