Got You Here Won’t Get You There – How Successful People Become
Even More Successful by Marshall Goldsmith. It’s listed
as one of the best books of 2007 and can be found at most book stores
including Amazon. Kris Emaus suggests The Servant, by James C. Hunter. It is based on the same Servant Leadership principle. "It is about an executive whose world is falling apart, both at home and work. He is sent to a monastery and the monk he works with is a former Fortune 500 CEO. It is a very powerful book that really makes you take a look at yourself. It was so captivating that I literally got up in the middle of the night to finish the book."
