Too many people assume the timeless principles of true leadership - of helping others achieve their full potential - don't apply Monday through Friday during work hours or in any circumstance where a paycheck is involved. In Greater Than Yourself, Stephen Farber proves them wrong.
In this powerful and inspiring story, Farber shows that the goal of a genuine leader is to help others - teammates, employees, and colleagues - become more capable and confident and accomplished than they are themselves. Through the actions of a forward thinking and extraordinarily successful CEO, Farber reveals the three keys to achieving this: Expand Yourself, Give Yourself, and Replicate Yourself. Filled with actionable principles and innovative ideas, Greater Than Yourself is perhaps the most powerful message today's business leaders can learn.
