BOOK REVIEW:
"I would caution you always to remember that an essential qualification of a good leader is the ability to recognize, select, and train junior leaders." --GEN Omar BradleyThe Four Hats of Leadership by Drake E. Taylor is an interesting and inspiring leadership book which offers valuable insights on how leaders are ‘made’ rather than ‘born.’ Author of this book has had a strong passion for leadership from an early age and wants people to go through life accomplishing their dreams. In his book, he talks about 4 important hats of leadership that a person needs to wear, in order to become who your people need you to be. These hats includes: Farmer's Hat, Psychologist Hat, Military Drill Instructor Hat and Self-Care Hat. He explains the importance of each of these hats via powerful examples and adopting a powerful storytelling style, he conveys the message wonderfully well that why it is important to wear all four hats. The more you learn to switch hats and use each of them as it is intended, the better leader you will become. Author counsel the reader to “reframe the personal challenge of improving your leadership skills into a collective challenge of helping to improve how your groups perform." This best leadership book seeks to redefine leadership and analyzes what actually goes into making a true leader.
