Participant Testimony
Ruth Esau is a brilliant leadership facilitator and is a master of the teachable moment. Her book and leadership structure are both simple and creative. People who aspire to be leaders can gain a clear understanding, through her insights and questions, of the world, their organization, their staff and most of all, themselves. Building on the Self Leadership Framework developed over many years both in the field and facilitating groups, Ruth helps us to ask the right questions and to build a personal accountability growth path. She will turn the “Woe is me” into the “Whoa! It’s me!” This book should be in every leader’s toolbox.
