Resumen del Editor

Imagine a world where you wake up, ready to lead with genuine confidence. You rarely feel insecure. You never pretend, perform, or act like you have it all together. You are simply secure in who you are and strong enough to influence others.

This isn’t crazy. This is authentic leadership.

Dan Owolabi has practiced and taught authentic leadership for over a decade. Here, he shares the timeless principles of authenticity through inspiring storytelling, sound research, and practical examples.

The most effective leaders have nothing to hide, nothing to prove, and nothing to lose. They know how to battle insecurity and lead with influence by growing through four stages:

• Understand yourself
• Lead yourself
• Understand others
• Lead others

It’s not an accident that authentic leaders are magnetic, confident, and resilient leaders. And you can become one, too!

Dan Owolabi is cofounder of Owolabi Leadership and executive director of Branches Worldwide. A sought-after and captivating keynote speaker, Dan has spent more than a decade helping leaders develop genuine, effective influence. A retired pastor, he works with a wide variety of leaders outside the church and around the world, helping them clarify their identity and leverage their influence as a service to others.

Dan holds a BA from Malone University and an MA from Ashland University. He lives in Ohio with his wife Erica and their two daughters.

Relatable

Dan really makes these concepts relatable. Not only from the stories and examples that are provided, but by his openess to share his own struggles and weaknesses. By doing so he builds influence with the reader, making you feel encouraged that you can achieve the same. I highly recommend the audio version as Dan is a great speaker and his personality really shows in this reading. Highly recommend to anyone pursuing leadership, whether in their family or in a company.

Insightful

After accepting a co-leadership position of my church group at Grace I was fearful that I wasn’t good enough. I wrestled with these feelings until I attended a Leadership Lunch In you hosted a week ago and saw your book. This has helped me focus on the service and well being of my group members and how I can set the standard and time of our group going forward. I know Jesus is with me on this journey.

Great!

This is a wonderful leadership book! I would highly recommend this book to anyone who is new or currently in management.

Inspirational!

The sights, the sounds, and the sensibilities of Sheila Owolabi's life in Lagos, Nigeria are unforgettable and transformational.

Dan Owolabi just doesn't makes for a great storyteller but also makes a great leadership coach. Loved the precision and the pictures in the book!

A Brilliant Thought Provoking Book

This well written book needs to be in the tool kit of every leader whether you lead a small team of operational staff,managers or a whole business this book needs to be on your shelf . It speaks to leadership in real terms, connects to a compelling story and just gives you real fundamentals for authentic leadership …brilliant!

Lead by Influence not Power

This is a great book. Lots of practical advice and stories to clarify what the author means.
I really enjoyed it and will listen again.
I especially found inspiring the talk about Power vs Influence.

Not What I Expected

This book was a suggested read through Audible but it didn't match my preferences. It was hoping this book would have some new ideas. It had a lot of story telling from other books on leadership and stories from the Bible. It would be a fine book for someone who hasn't read on leadership topics.
