A lot of what Dave says applies, even if you’re not in business. For example, any leader can benefit from Dave’s philosophy in Chapter 11 that as leaders we must put people first and that the way to judge this is by the Golden Rule. It’s good advice to remember, as he teaches in Chapter 12, that we should remember to recognize people. I know that personally, I thrive on appropriate and deserved recognition. In Chapter 12, Dave provides a list of various ways we can actually do this for others. Most of these, such as casting a vision, storytelling, passion, and example, are ways of recognizing others that you could use outside of business, too.
