Leading a Winning Team

Leadership, Power, and Purpose

De: Sherman Morris

Narrado por: Jamal West

In Leading a Winning Team: Leadership, Power, and Purpose, Dr. Sherman J. Morris offers a bold and deeply reflective exploration of leadership at the intersection of identity, responsibility, and legacy. This is not an essay filled with empty slogans or recycled business jargon. Instead, it is an urgent, personal, and culturally grounded call to lead with conviction—especially in high-stakes, competitive, and transitional environments. Drawing from his years of experience coaching leaders in sports, business, and the energy sector, Dr. Morris unpacks the inner war of leadership, the myths we inherit about power, and the sacred trust that comes when others follow your voice. He weaves African proverbs, lessons from Sun Tzu, and personal narrative to frame leadership as both a spiritual act and a practical discipline.

At its core, this essay is about what happens when leaders stop chasing control and start cultivating people. It challenges readers to think beyond influence and execution, to consider what it means to lead with intentionality, steward opportunity, and prepare the next generation of leaders. Whether you are building a coaching staff, leading a corporate team, or guiding your community through change, this work gives you the tools and mindset to win with purpose, power, and people.

Dr. Morris does not simply write about leadership. He calls you into it.

Leadership requires humility

“Leadership is not about you. It’s about what happens through you!” What a powerful statement and quote from this book! What a great read or listen on the topic of what leadership truly requires. You will be held accountable for any resistance to change or any lack of humility, both of which hinders the leadership process.
