✦ Synopsis

Why is it that everyone agrees on the best ways to train doctors, lawyers, and accountants—but no one has yet shown the best way to develop leaders? Out of the crucible of the emerging democracies from the old Soviet Union, Larry Stout has created a model that has assisted in developing leaders in government, business, finance, education, and even the church. Unlike other writers who give hints or helps for being a better leader, A Time for Change is a comprehensive design that has been called a "Weapon of Mass Instruction" in leadership development. Stout takes the reader through a step-by-step process, with insightful and provocative questions at each stage, designed to simply and clearly guide a path toward leadership that makes a real impact on others. Now, more than ever, this book is needed for those who are looking to build leadership in themselves or others.
