Review

"Success in a new venture isn't about how much you can do yourself. In my role as mentor and advisor to many founders, I consistently fail in convincing them of the power in wise delegation. I saw this challenge highlighted well in a new book, Leadership Skills that Inspire Incredible Results. Halstead has spent many years coaching and consulting with over 200 organizations, and he's helped me articulate the benefits of delegation--and better understand some of the key barriers." --Inc.com
"This is a practical, easy to read, and results oriented book anyone in a leadership role will greatly benefit from reading." --Mike Lafitte, Global Group President, CBRE

"Leadership Skills That Inspire Incredible Results takes direct aim at the skills needed to more effectively lead people and achieve higher levels of performance. If you are motivated to become a better leader and catalyze greater results, be sure and read this book cover to cover." --Jon Foster, President- American Group, HC
