Reading and learning is absolutely essential to business success; but excuses like, "I just don't have the time!” or “I’m a slow reader” or “Reading is boring” or “I don’t know what I should be reading” are holding you back. Barrera and Simmons have solved all of these problems for you in one simple easy listen.

Think about this; if your competitor is reading 4 books a month, in one year, you’re going to be 48 books behind. If they’re reading ten books a month, you’re 120 books behind by the end of the year. After 10 years, you are 1200 books behind. That’s a devastating deficit. The antidote is in this book. You can wallop your competitors with very little investment of your time if you know how. The secrets lie here.

Leaders are Readers helps business leaders incorporate reading and constant learning into their very busy schedules by mastering any business book in an under an hour.

Rick and his colleagues believe that love and results are not opposites but are two sides of the same coin. How can you love your company, team, job, project, and customers and deliver anything less than your best?

"Leading from the Heart is not soft," says Barrera "In fact, it is driven by hard-nosed pragmatism. People do their best work when they are part of a high-performance team, supported by a leader who has their back. We all know deep in our hearts that this is the right way to lead but sometimes we get distracted by the day-to-day, and forget who we are. We all need to be reminded from time to time."

Rick's most recent books include Leaders are Readers, Learners are Earners, and We Before Me.
