What's the Book About?

"As a church pastor of 28 years, I wish I had this book available to me at the start of my ministry. I have already recommended it to numerous people in various fields. I believe it would even help those who are practicing change agents to become even more effective." Karl R.

"This is one of those books that is delightfully surprising in its ability to engage the reader in an adventure while providing practical and ethical approaches to working with and managing a team. " Victoria C. 

 "David Bauman provides a wonderful historical setting and perspective reminding us of the journey that leaders take as learners and eventually, as teachers." Edgar P. 

"Dr. Bauman knows how to use power, influence with power, and write powerfully. But rather than dictate to us, he tells an engaging story that teaches these lessons. In a world of dry treatises this is a delightful treat. " Josh E. 

"I really enjoyed the format of this book. it reads like a story of young people receiving special training. During their training you become acquainted with the eight different sources with a real world application. at the same time they are contrasted with the traditional power of "might makes right". I would highly recommend it." Jimmy D.  

"So glad I read this book. Insightful, digestible, enjoyable. Having the lessons narrated as a story helped to make the key takeaways more practical and memorable. Would highly recommend for others out there looking to lead through purpose instead of authority!" S. Akindele
