LEADERSHIP LESSONS: Essays on How to Improve Organisational Performance by James B Rieley
2.5
Rieley divides a host of practical leadership articles, which in the inked form can be read in any order according to fancy (rated a 4). However, I had a chance, thanks to Netgalley, to review the audiobook, which is subpar, mainly recording and not narration, for the subject matter at hand (rated 2).. Thus my rating of a 3.

The Art of Clear Thinking: A Stealth Fighter Pilot's Timeless Rules for Making Tough Decisions by Hasard Lee
5.0
Lee’s book Art of Clear Thinking fits many molds: self-help, leadership, risk management, and more. I was awarded the chance to review the audio version from NetGalley and Lee whisked the listener into the world of fighter pilots and their process of perfection. I have several bulletin points I can’t wait to link into my own processes of discernment and walk in life. The advice on awareness and assessment alone is golden.
Leading with Emotional Intelligence : In the Age of Automation, Robotics & AI by Kevin Mann
3.75
Far too many leaders in an organization get tunnel vision and lack the humility and/or capacity to see their organization both from the outside in and from the bottom up. Leading with emotional intelligence begins the hard work leaders need in order to truly surpass the way their tunnel vision limits the organization and maximizes its true potential. The is simple not easy work to be done. Employee disengagement begins within the first 3-5 months of working in a company, which is also an educated guess as to how long it takes leaders to be blinded within their own echo chamber unless they do something about it. Highly recommend the book 4*. Thanks to NetGalley I received an audiobook version as well, which I do not recommend 2*.
