"Effective leadership isn't about having power over people, it's about doing good for people." --Bill Treasurer

Leaders Open Doors

"I got to open doors for people!" These are the words spoken by author Bill Treasurer's five-year-old son, and these are the words which helped him to formulate perhaps his greatest insight into the characteristics of a successful leader.

In his most recent book, Leaders Open Doors, author Bill Treasurer contends that "leadership is about noticing, identifying, and creating opportunities for those being led." Discover how this radically simple approach is helping to redefine what leadership really means.
