review 1: In this book the writer who is Deeper Chopra laid his focus on one of the most important life skill, which is leadership. However Chopra’s definition of leadership does not only include those individuals with special attributes, but he views leadership as a potential skill to any person who can get inspiration from his soul to become a leader. He believes that being a successful leader requires evolving passion to what you do. The book is divided into three parts: in the first part he defines the letters of the acronym “LEADERS”, the second part gives a real example of individuals who used their soul to emerge as great leader and the third part outlines ten principles of leadership. He defines the key aspects of Leadership as, L= Look & Listen, E: Emotional bonding, ... moreA: Awareness, D= Doing, E= Empowerment, R= Responsibility and S= Synchronicity. Although Chopra has interesting perspective of leadership, the soul part was a bit confusing. I did not see my self communicating with his ideas, however I liked the way he guides the reader step by step, identifying even the hidden strengths such as emotional intelligence in the way to emerge as a successful leader. I truly enjoyed the part that talks about Jeremy Moon’s experience in leadership, it was really inspiring and it gave me a real sense of what it takes to build and lead a flourishing business.
review 2: Uplifiting and enlightening. I have posted the acronym LEADERS in my office to constantly remind me to Look and Listen, creating opportunities or take advantage of opportunities for Emotional Bonding, to make sure that I remain Aware of what is going on around me, the impact that I have on others and how I am allowing others to influence me, to remember to Do, to take action, to Empower myself and those around me to strive to be better, to reach higher, to dream bigger, to be Responsible for my actions and influence, and to be open to Sychronicity with myself, those around me and the universe. less

I liked the soul profile making, but I think it would be suitable for business people more than me.

It was a good book.....a lot of deep thoughts but I suppose that's to be expected.
