After five decades of work with non-profit organizations, John R. Mott--YMCA trailblazer, youth advocate, Nobel Peace Prize winner, evangelist, and advisor to statesmen--summed up all he’d learned in fifteen basic statements. Today, almost fifty years later, sixteen YMCA leaders rediscover Mott’s life lessons and apply his simple and spiritual precepts to today’s challenges and a new generation. Writing from their hearts, these leaders each take one lesson and share personal experiences that demonstrate how Mott’s basic, timeless principles can strengthen an organization and keep its heart and purpose strong.
With a foreword by Ken Blanchard, co-author of The One-Minute Manager and Lead Like Jesus and endorsements by Max Lucado, S. Truett Cathy, and Laurie Beth Jones.
