Good leaders can pinpoint the reasons for their actions and decisions with the ease of reciting their home address. Here Pastor Hybels summarizes his leadership methods under four key categories: vision and strategy, teamwork and communication, activity and assessment, and personal integrity. You'll be encouraged to reflect on your own management style!
Winning leaders have winning points of view—succinct, practical, portable leadership proverbs that help them arbitrate decisions and rouse troops to action. In Axiom: The Language of Leadership, Bill Hybels reveals eighty God-given, from-the-gut truths that continue to raise his game and his vision, thirty-plus years into his local-church leadership experience.

A great book that is a fast read. With the way it is layed out, it is easy to identify your favorite leadership axioms in each category and to identify those that you may want to work on.

This book is a must read for any one who is in leadership. It is very concise and covers every aspect of leadership. Our pastor has recommended it to everyone in our church who is in leadership.

What a great book! You don't have to agree with everything Willow Creek is about to glean very helpful insight from the leadership experience of Hybels. If his book 'Courageous Leadership' is 101, this is Leadership 201. I recommend this to any pastor who is trying to improve his leadership abilities!

Bill has done another great job by capturing the key ideas succintly. Please note that the number of pages is 218. Not 128.
