    "Bill George reminds us that compassion and understanding are as important qualities for business leaders as dedication and resolve." (President Jimmy Carter)

    A good message for anyone contemplating their own role and career as a leader, but a little too soothing in its delivery.

    Good message, slow delivery

    Loved it. Narrator was easy on the ear and Bill George's concepts clear and concise with plenty of real life examples. My most memorable peice was Theodore Roosevelt speech 'Man in the arena' - excellent end to an excellent work!
