Kevin Sheehan seems to have found the best of those folks and documents the lives of an amazingly diverse group of individuals who epitomize excellence. The 'usual supects', Winston Churchill, JFK and Albert Einstein coexist on these pages with Georgia O'keefe, Louis Armstrong and Tiger Woods. You can read it from the front, the back or the middle and you can take your time about it too. Then. leave it on the coffee table so your kids can read about people "doing something right".  Comment | Permalink | Was this review helpful to you? (Report this)

Hudson (Sherborn, MA United States) - See all my reviews    I work a lot with middle and high school youth and find this book a perfect introduction to leadership for a new generation. Each of the mini biographies are well written, clear and informative. The timelines graphically make history come alive. The photos really add punch to the book and the design is top notch. It is a wonderful gift for a young person and also would work well in the classroom. First rate!  Comment | Permalink | Was this review helpful to you? (Report this)

Girrell "CamdenCoach" (Boston, MA) - See all my reviews    I am, first of all, amazed at Kevin's understanding of what it takes to be a superlative leader. I have been an executive leadership coach of some of the finest leaders in the northeast US, and Kevin (a self described author/producer/entrepreneur) has nailed it extremely well. From the selection of representative leaders to the extensive list of their characteristics, I found it not only right on but at times more in depth than my understanding of my own craft! I am buying a bunch to give out as gifts for my colleagues or as completion tokens for clients. Impressive work, beautifully laid out.  Comment | Permalink | Was this review helpful to you?
