Why Do You Want to Lead?

Why do you want to lead?

There are only two honest answers. They look almost identical from the outside. They change everything about how a company runs.

That question is the spine of The Motive by Patrick Lencioni, the first book on our Leadership Shelf: the leadership books we use most, rebuilt as two minute interactive reads.

The page walks the two kinds of leader, the five jobs only the leader can do, and a 60-second self-check that grades your calendar, not your intentions.

Read The Motive in two minutes.

If you lead anything, take the two minutes.
