Review:
"In a world full of leadership advice, this book rises to the top as a most excellent resource. Instead of just addressing the how to lead questions, this book equips leaders with the heart attitude we must bring no matter our methods. Honestly, if there was one leadership message I wish the world would really get, it's contained in this book by my friend, Perry Noble."
Lysa TerKeurst, President of Proverbs 31 Ministries and New York Times Bestselling Author of The Best Yes
"Perry is a good friend do mine and has written another terrific book. He's the right guy to talk about leadership, because he leads with love. He's not afraid to be out front, but knows the power of getting behind people. Perry is a guy who lives a life in constant anticipation of what could happen if we led and loved people the way God leads and loves us. When you turn the last page of this book, you won't want to lead more like Perry, you'll want to lead more like Jesus."
Bob Goff, Love Does + Restore International
"You know a leader when you see one. They are always surrounded by fantastic people doing important things. That certainly describes my friend Perry. In his first leadership book, The Most Excellent Way to Lead, Perry looks at leadership through a familiar lens while offering unique insight and Monday morning application."
Andy Stanley, Senior Pastor, North Point Ministries
My friend Perry's book The Most Excellent Way to Lead is a timely work on leadership and quickly gets to the heart of the matter. He carefully expounds on the biblical example and perspective Jesus gives us - effective leadership centered on love. Anyone, leading anything or anyone, should read this book for a fresh and challenging call to leadership.

Many who have observed his mind blowing success from a distance have asked me what I think the secret is.

The real, raw, radical leadership philosophy and practices of Perry Noble will rock your perspective if you let them. I know firsthand. So much of the confidence I have today as a leader is due to the example and investment of my friend.

"I've known Perry since we were teenagers. When I met him, he'd just become a Christian. Now, nearly 25 years later, I'm amazed at how God has used him as a pastor and a leader. These pages are Perry's heart and soul poured out in your hands. He lives each one of these principles daily, and he practices what he preaches consistently. You will benefit from the wisdom and experience he shares, as well as his insights into scripture and how that practically helps you become a more loving, effective leader. This book is a gift to leaders, business owners, pastors, entrepreneurs, parents and coaches...and just about anyone that wants to make a difference in other people's lives."
Clayton King, Evangelist, Pastor, and Author of Stronger, Founder of Crossroads Missions and Summer Camps
"Perry Noble is one of my favorite people. He leads with a genuine heart, a willingness to learn and a belief that the best is yet to come. The NewSpring Church story is the result of what happens when people are committed to leading in the most excellent way possible. One of the reasons I purchased this book for our staff is I want us to learn everything we possibly can about leading this way. Like NewSpring, we believe the best is yet to come for our church. After reading Perry's new book, you'll believe the same way too."
