In what is their most personal work to date, Kouzes and Posner zero in on the core challenges leaders face and offer up a thoughtful and reassuring perspective any leader, or aspiring leader, will learn from and enjoy. Over a span of nearly four hours of audio, they explore the thorny and often ambiguous issues of today's leaders through a series of 22 short essays, grouped into four parts (significance, relationships, aspirations, and courage.) The topics discussed include:

• Commitment: people don't commit to plans, they commit to causes.
• Vision: it's not the leader's vision, it's the shared vision.
• Solutions: there is no silver bullet.
• Leadership: being a leader changes who you are.
• Legacy: the legacy you leave is the life you lead.
