The Legacy Builder: Five Non-Negotiable Leadership Secrets


Rod Olson - 2013
    The five non-negotiables. And you can’t give away what you don’t possess yourself.” When Lance Marshall’s life comes crashing down, his wife arranges for him to meet with his high school mentor, Coach Moore. Coach sends Lance “back to the locker room” to talk with five sports legends who are now successful leaders. Each player will show Lance a principle for excellence in both leadership and the home. But the advice comes with a caveat: Lance must apply the principle he learns within twenty-four hours or the meetings end. This modern parable is for business leaders, coaches, and parents who know the challenge of motivating people while balancing the demands of life with integrity—and leaving a legacy that will last forever.
