Synopsis

Where does one begin to explore the mastery and mystery of leadership? As good as place as any is this little gem written with captivating stories, simple language, "stuff that works", and heart-touching reality. Speaking of "simple", it is clear that life has become complicated and complex. Finding relief from that complexity is refreshingly found in The Four Cornerstones and The Capstone. As many football coaches will tell you, it's about the blocking and tackling...not the trick plays.

There are no trick plays in this book. Instead, clear and concise principles have been summarized and highlighted in the Cornerstones of Trust, Understanding, Freedom, and Unity. Each Cornerstone has only four elements that lend to the stability and strength of your leadership. The Capstone of Joy is the icing on the cake...a symbol of completion that is worth celebrating.

The book is divided into four distinct parts. Part one includes a compelling introduction to the author and his reasons for writing the book. Part two consists of the explanation of the Cornerstones and Capstone. Part three is a 52-week compilation of stories supported by Biblical scripture and followed by a challenge to record your own thoughts on each subject. Part four is a set of worksheets that the author uses with the leadership teams he coaches. Again, practicality and simplicity accompany each document. On the other hand, you may have to dig deep inside to find the answers to some of the profound questions about your life.
