About this item

Among the most successful leaders throughout history -- from Abe Lincoln to Rosa Parks, Mahatma Gandhi to Susan B.

Their mastery of their field wasn't the secret to their highly effective leadership. All of their skill, grit, resilience, charisma, and courage emanated from one thing: their strength of character.Character -- the moral values and habits of an individual -- is in the spotlight now more than perhaps at any other point in modern history. Politicians distort facts. Corporations cheat customers and investors. Athletes are caught using illegal supplements.
