No! Not another book on leadership! That was my first reaction as I received the manuscript of this book. Upon careful reading, I came to realize that Dr. Enlow has artistically captured the essence of leading by influence and has presented it in a clear and colorful way. As a veteran leader, Dr. Enlow speaks from vast experience, but it is not merely subjective anecdotal experience. The book is firmly rooted in serious and current research. As I meet leaders from all over the globe, I am no longer hesitant what to recommend them to read. Riad Kassis, director of Langham Scholars Ministry; international director of the International Council for Evangelical Theological Education This book under-promises and over-delivers with a powerful palette of leadership wisdom. But drop everythingright nowand read the warning in the last chapter on doxological leadership. I am recommending this book to all my clientsand I will likely reread this gem once a year. Its that important. John Pearson, consultant (www.johnpearsonassociates.com) and author of Mastering the Management Buckets

The right kind of story at the right time, can make an organization “stunningly vulnerable” to a new idea.
