Mission First, People Always

Maybe you've been gunning for a supervisor position for ages, or perhaps you've unexpectedly been thrust into a leadership role. Nevertheless, the question remains - what now? Like all skills, leadership must be practiced and honed. But when an inexperienced boss is pulled in countless different directions and has the weight of an organization suddenly bearing down on them, self-improvement and training tend to take a back seat.

Join Captain Daniel Johnston of the U. S. Air Force as he sheds light on what it takes to be a leader vs. a boss. Drawing from his military career as well as history, literature, and pop culture, Capt. Johnston divides the leadership skillset into two disciplines: Management and Motivation. Mission First, People Always presents relatable and immediately applicable lessons that showcase the skills necessary to become a two-part leader.

Included in this informative and heartfelt guide are:

Be more than a boss. Be a two-part leader. Personal experiences from an Air Force officer on leadership lessons learned in the field
Stories of leaders such as FDR, Genghis Khan, Dumbledore, and Esther which embodied the principles of Management and Motivation
Questions at the end of each chapter to reflect upon and help implement newly-learned leadership skills within your own organization
A call to action to help you lead efficiently, humbly, and wisely.
