Top positive review

Must read for business and life development

Reviewed in the United States on July 29, 2020

This book takes you on a journey to gain humility, purpose and direction in a non-text book way of writing.

After quickly reading it I have already found myself putting into play the teachings. Don’t get me wrong I didn’t walk away from this book 2x the person I am or don’t struggle with the same b.s. as before but I know have a little bit more of a light to follow.

Excited to buy other books from this author who has a novelesque way of engaging the reader, one could argue its too good because at night when I read it never puts me to sleep so I have to drop it for a boring book when it’s passed my adult bed time!

A very meh read.

Reviewed in the United States on May 3, 2021

This book outright is a very simple, very boring read. The chapters are without transition, and are very choppy. There was so much cruft around each bit of knowledge that the first 100 pages could easily be consolidated into 10 without issue. Good intentioned, but a very arduous read.

A Must Have Life-Changing Book You'll Want to Read Over and Over Again!!!

Our recent interview on Inspire Nation with Robin Sharma about The Leader Who Had No Title was our best-received ever, and there's a reason for...this book is brilliant. I've read the book twice now, and listen to the interview over and over again.

I honestly have no idea how Robin does it. He distills 100's of books worth of information into a story that's fun to read, easy to digest and stick with you. You may forget the anacronyms but you can't forget the messages.

And his concepts are both old, and revolutionary new. His premise that we can all lead, no matter our job, position, title or status...a true democratization of the workplace and our lives is liberating, inspiring, and incredibly empowering.

If you want to take your life to the next level. If you want to take your business to the next level. Or if you want your spirit to soar, I cannot recommend this book enough. Go LWT and Go Robin, thank you so much for this beautiful book!!!

Great read for a leader looking to build more leaders in their organization

I am not s huge fan of the parable, and I will admit I listened to audiobook before reading the book. Do yourself s favor and skip the audiobook version and just read the book. Narration of a parable is nearly unbearable with character changes, etc... I nearly lost out on the value of this book because of that.

Instead I came back to the print version and am glad I did. Lots of great lessons I can leverage with my team, and I am now sharing the book with my organizations top leaders.

A Realistic Path Towards Realizing Personal Best

Reviewed in the United States on May 16, 2013

This book, especially for those that know what it is to serve their country, ties emotional reaction to life lessons. I honestly believe that if you tell someone something they will remember it for only the next few minutes to an hour. If you teach them something they may remember it for a week to a year. But if you can involve emotion they will remember it for a life time.
For those that live in the illusion that peace and freedom come without sacrifice this book will appear as a corny fraud. For those who have represented our country to ensure the life style we see so many take for granted, the book will imprint powerful lessons through emotion.

I have read many books on self-improvement. They are all great; but one thing seems to always get me. They all ask up front for huge life changes. This in fact is usually a recipe for failure. Going into a gym and working your heart out on the first day will cause damage so painful that it will prevent all from perusing fitness. If a person however takes small steps in the right direction, they will eventually get to the point where they can compete in body building competitions without having to consistently talk themselves into working out. This is because they do not have to justify the high level of pain.

Success and continual reading is the path way for success. Reading this book had the one key for me, to bring all of the self-improvement lessons I have had together. This may or may not be the book to trigger the best in you. The only way to find out is to read it. The lesson that was the trigger for me was, dream big and take small steps. Even one goal success a day is progress in the right direction. I was trying to implement too much at one time consistently and failed continuously. Now I am not focused on being perfect but focused on eating one small success goal at a time. My life has already dramatically changed for the better.

For those that see this as a book to give optimal work for no more pay. Your heart is in the wrong place, as it is not about your boss or your pay. It is about being your personal best. When you are your personal best you will be happier with yourself. To me, being happy is way more important than being rich. Yes, money can buy cool things and make life easier; but it does not deliver any form of permanent satisfaction. Also it does not remove regret of a life not fully lived.

I highly recommend this book for those that have military service and their family members. I also recommend this book for those looking to be their personal best and are trying to be happy in all areas of their lives.

Very good book not only for university graduates, but specially for non college degree young people that feel that the lack of a diploma, is a closed door for success.
All you need to succed is to want it¡¡ and then put the effort to get the best nout of you in what evere it is you decide to do.

Be your own leader and motivate others, with your attitude and example, towards satisfaction.
