De: Shawn Trautman

Narrado por: Shawn Trautman, Joanna Trautman

If leadership were easy, everyone would do it. But the best leaders aren’t born—they’re built.

Leadership Secrets: How the Best Leaders Think Differently (and What You’re Missing) reveals the small but powerful mindset shifts that set exceptional leaders apart—and shows how you can lead with greater purpose, presence, and clarity.

Drawing from decades of leadership experience in business, coaching, and parenting, Shawn Trautman delivers practical, story-driven lessons that resonate across work and life. Whether you are a first-time manager, coach, educator, parent, or experienced executive, this audiobook meets you where you are and helps you grow from there.

What you will learn:

• How to lead people, not just manage tasks
• The secret to empowering others without losing control
• How to catch people doing things right and build trust
• Why delegation is only half the story—and what true empowerment looks like
• How to clarify your values and lead with confidence

Each chapter offers a complete lesson in just a few minutes of listening, making it easy to apply the insights, revisit them later, or share them with your team. With simple but powerful takeaways, you will gain the language, clarity, and confidence needed to inspire those around you.

Unlike leadership books filled with corporate buzzwords or abstract theories, this audiobook is grounded in real-life stories and actionable advice. It challenges you to think differently, focus on what truly matters, and build the kind of influence that lasts.

Leadership isn’t about having all the answers—it’s about asking better questions. If you are ready to become the kind of leader others want to follow, this audiobook is your starting point.

Excellent resource for managers and employees alike!

Thoughtfully written and presented chapters loaded with personal stories, followed by a short section with challenges to help be a better asset to both your employer as a whole and most of all, a manager that will help their employees be better team players and assets to the company. Even for me, retired and a senior citizen, there were plenty of points to help me navigate today’s work environment.
Shawn narrates his book well, very engaging, and is easy to listen to. The wide range of topics are presented in an order that builds on what has been presented. Each chapter ends with a highlight of what was presented along with gentle challenges to help you search out your weaknesses and improve your management methods, or for those of us non-managers, suggestions to help you be a better asset to the folks that write your paychecks.
The presentation is well organized so that if you want to go back and review a specific topic it is easy to find. 5 thumbs up!
