Why You Need This Book!

8-ates provides practical tools that are realistic and easy to follow. If those tools are applied with intent and purpose, the reader will enhance their leadership skills no matter their current position in life.

Intentional Behavior & Desired Results

Thank you for your time, your investment, and what I’m guessing to be a sincere interest in upping your leadership game. If there’s one thing I’ve learned after decades of leading, is that if you’re not intentional, this whole leadership gig just won’t happen. There’s always squeakier wheels to grease, easier paths to take, and excuses to be made.
