The world needs many, strong leaders, but few people recognise their own unique leadership potential. According to Brett Johnson, the lack of leaders in the world stems partly from the fact that our definitions of leadership are too narrow or incomplete. Most experts describe only one or two leadership styles, but Lemon Leadership expands our view and describes five distinct types of leaders: • Luminaries • Entrepreneurs • Managers • Organisers • Networkers This edition of Lemon Leadership has been revised and expanded to offer you even more tools and advice. It will help you identify your leadership style in order to apply it within your organisation. By getting to know the five kinds of leaders, you will uncover keys to dealing with situations calling for different styles of leadership. The art of good leadership is knowing which type of leader is needed in any situation, and then to be free to adjust accordingly. Understanding the simple truths found in Lemon Leadership will radically increase your impact as a leader.

In this "vital book for these times" (Kirkus Reviews), Don Lemon brings his vast audience and experience as a reporter and a Black man to today's most urgent question: How can we end racism in America in our lifetimes? The host of CNN Tonight with Don Lemon is more popular than ever. As America’s only Black prime-time anchor, Lemon and his daily monologues on racism and antiracism, on the failures of the Trump administration and of so many of our leaders, and on America’s systemic flaws speak for his millions of fans. Now, in an urgent, deeply personal, riveting plea, he shows us all how deep our problems lie, and what we can do to begin to fix them. Beginning with a letter to one of his Black nephews, he proceeds with reporting and reflections on his slave ancestors, his upbringing in the shadows of segregation, and his adult confrontations with politicians, activists, and scholars. In doing so, Lemon offers a searing and poetic ultimatum to America. He visits the slave port where a direct ancestor was shackled and shipped to America. He recalls a slave uprising in Louisiana, just a few miles from his birthplace. And he takes us to the heart of the 2020 protests in New York City. As he writes to his young nephew: We must resist racism every single day. We must resist it with love.
