Synopsis

Leveraging Your Leadership Style challenges every person to recognize that every person who has influence in the lives of others - and that's everyone! - is a leader. Seizing the leadership opportunities in your life by understanding your own style and the style of others will help you have the maximum impact in your sphere of leadership. Leveraging Your Leadership Style explores how everyone leads in their own way, based upon their unique, God-given personalities and temperaments. Everyone has a leader within, but they must tap into their unique strengths and improve on their weaknesses in order to be the leader they were born to be.
