"One of the best leadership catalogs of the entire year."

Leadership is the skill of changing how people think, feel, and act. While some experts make it seem to be complicated, it certainly has only two elements: what you say and what you do. And matching to Alan Deutschman, most market leaders focus too much on words rather than practically enough on setting an example.
Deutschman profiles a variety of leaders (in business, education, the military services, and nonprofits) who always walked the walk, especially when times got rough. Inside a skeptical world, that offered them more credibility than even the perfect speeches.
Deutschman also shows the damaging implications of not walking the walk, even on relatively minor concerns. Consider how the CEOs of GM and Chrysler injured their chances of a administration bailout by flying their private jets to Washington.
The eye-opening good examples in Walk the Walk will inspire leaders at all levels.
