The Book

Leadership is one of the most deep-seated aspirations for people of our day. The principles of effective leadership are often easy to understand on the surface, yet extremely difficult to internalize and put into practice. One Man's Influence succinctly describes 10 leadership themes, using real-life examples the author learned from his mentor and close friend, Bart Schillaci. The book is a rare combination of insightful leadership principles coupled with heartfelt stories about a real man who had real impact on the lives of everyone who had the privilege of knowing him. Although Bart passed away in 2005 after battling cancer, his guidance and wisdom live on in this book and in the hearts and minds of those he touched. One Man's Influence was written with mid-level and senior-level managers in mind, but its lessons transcend the business environment and can be applied to leadership of schools, governments, non-profits and other organizations worldwide.
