The Presidential Principles: How To Inspire Action And Create Lasting Impact

by Anton J. Gunn

Overview

Lead Like A Commander-In-Chief:

Historically, presidents have represented the apex of leadership. Though there are a myriad of variations in presidential leadership, author Anton Gunn has experienced some striking similarities that all strong leaders present. In a blend of Anton’s personal stories and his experiences with Presidents George H.W. Bush,
Clinton, George W. Bush, and Obama, The Presidential Principles aims to help individual and organizational leaders develop effective leadership practices that inspire service and build a lasting impact on the people they lead and serve.

Divided into three main parts—service, empowerment, and legacy—the book dives deep into each of the seven principles that Anton believes only the best leaders exemplify. Principles like “inspire others through your action,” and “preach what you know,” are only a couple of essential lessons for anyone who wants to improve their leadership. As a leadership coach and a former politician, Anton knows what it takes to be a powerful leader. Let The Presidential Principles help you learn leadership traits that will allow you to impact your organization the way the President has an impact on America.
