One With the People
Jack King's passionate new book, One With the People, helps us better understand leadership, at its heart, is love manifest, and leadership without love is no leadership at all. One With the People is a profound journey of discovery that takes each of us deep within to see for ourselves the sacred link between the material and spiritual realm of leadership that, in the end, comes together as a seamless whole. One With the People takes timeless teachings from the traditions and culture of the 19th century American Indian and, with great care and respect, applies them to 21st century leadership. In short, it provides a platform from which to take a clear stand on the belief that leadership is love manifest, maintaining what the people need most is not more leaders but, rather, to know love and compassion through their leaders. The setting is a four-day quest on the top of a grand mesa in the four corners region of America's southwest where Sani, a very old and very wise Navajo man, prepares his adopted granddaughter, Topangah, a young Tongva lady of twelve winters, to take her place among the people and lead them to a new and better place. Sani uses the Anishinaabe teachings of the Seven Grandfathers to help Topangah understand what is truly necessary to lead: love, respect, courage, honesty, humility, truth, and wisdom. To help us, King has placed these teachings within the context of a successful 21st century organization that is just realizing they are not everything they can be because "the love is gone." Through this inspiring story of leadership and spirit, One With the People challenges the leader within each of us to be one with the people like the soaring eagle is one with the wind.
