7 Principles of Becoming a Leader: The definitive guide for starting and building your management career by Riku Vuorenmaa
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This book is for those leaders who want to be the best. Being the best does not mean you step all over others around you. A leader should be able to move with his/her peers, raising those up around him/her and develop those who need help. Leading by example is a great principle to live by, but it can’t be your only one, especially not in this world.
I like that the author spent some time debunking myths that are out there regarding leaders, and what it takes to be one. The actions that are given throughout the book, reinforce certain principles, and the real-world examples, some from the authors real world experience, help bring the book together. I think that the well-written and easy to understand layout will serve the reader well and the junior leaders and managers out there will be able to gain much value from this book.
