This audiobook has a simple message for business leaders: your primary goal must be to serve and raise the poor. The poor need to enter the economic system to buy products, put money in banks, and move into the middle class. This is the only approach that can possibly save the American Dream. John Hope Bryant, successful self-made businessman and founder of the nonprofit Operation HOPE, says business and political leaders are ignoring the one force that could truly re-energize the stalled American economy: the poor.

Story5 out of 5 stars 141
When the Emancipation Proclamation was signed in 1863, the black community owned less than one percent of the United States' total wealth. More than 150 years later, that number has barely budged. The Color of Money pursues the persistence of this racial wealth gap by focusing on the generators of wealth in the black community: black banks. The catch-22 of black banking is that the very institutions needed to help communities escape the deep poverty caused by discrimination and segregation inevitably became victims of that same poverty.

But through the power of self-discipline, he changed his life.

“The problem of the twentieth century is the problem of the color line,” writes Du Bois, in one of the most prophetic works in all of American literature. First published in 1903, this collection of 15 essays dared to describe the racism that prevailed at that time in America—and to demand an end to it. Du Bois’ writing draws on his early experiences, from teaching in the hills of Tennessee, to the death of his infant son, to his historic break with the conciliatory position of Booker T. Washington.

In The Half Has Never Been Told, historian Edward E. Baptist reveals the alarming extent to which slavery shaped our country politically, morally, and most of all, economically. Until the Civil War, our chief form of innovation was slavery. Through forced migration and torture, slave owners extracted continual increases in efficiency from their slaves, giving the country a virtual monopoly on the production of cotton, a key raw material of the Industrial Revolution.

I can’t believe he wrote this book

Publisher's Summary
A dynamic young leader shows how leading with love and respect creates success in business and life
Written by the founder of Operation HOPE and advisor to the past two U.S. presidents, this groundbreaking book makes the case that the best way to get ahead is to figure out what you have to give to a world seemingly obsessed with the question: What do I get?
Aimed at a new generation of leaders and extremely relevant for today's economic climate, Love Leadership outlines Bryant's five laws of love-based leadership: Loss Creates Leaders (there can be no strength without legitimate suffering), Fear Fails (only respect and love leads to success), Love Makes Money (love is at the core of true wealth), Vulnerability Is Power (when you open up to people they open up to you), and Giving is Getting (the more you offer to others, the more they will give back to you).
One of today's most influential leaders, Bryant has appeared on Oprah and in articles in the LA Times, New York Times, and the Wall Street Journal. Bryant's bold approach to leadership is well-suited for today's tough economic environment and a world gripped by fear and uncertainty. Love Leadership is that unique and powerful book that bridges the gap between solid business advice and pure inspiration.

The Perfect Guide To My Leadership Style
I have often faced difficulty with my leadership style in the workplace. I was always perplexed as to why I faced such opposition in leading, teaching, and guiding people with love. After some time, it dawned on me that my style wasn't the norm. I then struggled with how to make my leadership style thrive in today's world. This book does just that. John Hope Bryant is the beacon atop a lighthouse for all of those who lead by love. He also makes a thorough argument for those not following this style of leadership to switch both sides and strategies. The wisdom, mindset, theories, and strategies revealed in this book speak to his experience and understanding of using love to create permanent and lasting change in this world...despite the pressures and expectation to rule by fear. Great read.

Fantastic
Very well put together. Love leadership puts a finger on the missing piece of our puzzle. As humans we share a common bond that extends past merely breathing oxygen. If we all do our part as love leaders in our city, town, community and home. We will look up from our work and see the prosperity left in our wake. As it's pasted on to the next generation. Bravo Mr. Hope.
