George Barna, a leader himself in the field of leadership, engaged some of the best minds in the leadership field, to write a book about what he gleaned important from these Master Leaders. These were proven men in their respective arenas of work- head football coaches, ministers, CEO, and etc.- all successful and respected by many. The beauty of the book, in part, lies in how Barna writes it. He tells a story, as if he were the MC (Master of Ceremonies) of a leadership conference that brought together these Master Leaders into one collective forum. Barna communicates the story from the vantage point of sitting in the green room, eating, drinking coffee, and attentively listening for nuggets to be dropped by each one. It is a masterful piece of work. I've found that leadership books can be dry, but such wasn't the case for this one. The crafted messages of Master Leaders are told in such a way as to cause the reader to believe that it all happened that way. That's powerful storytelling that resonates for the long term.
