I am a fan of Ken Blanchard ever since he wrote the One Minute Manager. Since then, his walk with Christ has blossomed and now many of his more current books reflect his faith and reference Scripture. So, I was excited about reading this book. While reading, I seemed underwhelmed by its content. It seemed in places the authors were trying to bend the bible to reinforce an idea. However, when I completed the book, I looked back over my notes and found I had recorded quite a few. Bottom-line: good, but not great book on leadership using Jesus as a good example.
