Outstanding Leaders

This was a phenomenal listen! Taking lessons from the past & making them relevant in to today’s workforce/leaders is a brilliant approach to viewing Robert Carter’s life! The book left me with many thoughts on Robert’s life, it also left me wanting to know more about this man. The narration was a high point & made the book pleasurable to listen to. I’m walking away from this audible with a combination of lessons on history, genealogy & leadership. New & established leaders can both benefit from a glance into the life of A Man Named Robert.
