Many of the most valuable leadership lessons CEO’s learn throughout their careers come from mistakes we have made along the way, the setbacks and hard-won triumphs that have helped us in our ongoing pursuit of becoming better leaders. I wish I had had Dr. Deptula’s ‘Leaders Are Born To Be Made’ actionable steps long ago.   If you're serious about being a better leader, start here.

Dr. Deptula’s work can best be described as a Leadership Manifesto! His truthful and unvarnished approach to learning actionable leadership skills is revolutionary. According to Manilla recruitment, employee turnover is caused by ten reasons. At the top of the list is “Bad Bosses”. The truth works, all the time! Leaders Are Born To Be Made will help trainers, mentors, leaders, and aspiring leaders address eight of the top ten reasons for leadership failure.

Bryan Deptula's book, Leaders Are Born To Be Made, succeeds where other leadership development books fail. The focus on self-leadership first is a refreshing approach to ensuring that leaders are well prepared to lead others. He demystifies the research on leadership and translates the evidence into clear guidelines. The book builds a solid foundation for improving leader-member relationships in the workplace.
