LeaderShift: A Call for Americans to Finally Stand Up and Lead: summary, description and annotation
We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "LeaderShift: A Call for Americans to Finally Stand Up and Lead" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.
In the process, Mersher and his team learn how the Five Laws of Decline are eroding the nations economy-quietly ruining businesses and big institutions-and what American executives and citizens need to do to put a stop to this.
Above all, Mersher and his colleagues discover something few business leaders or citizens of free nations have yet to realize: Our world today is on the verge of a momentous LeaderShift, one which will reframe the twenty-first century and significantly alter the way we govern, lead, and do business.
When Mersher and his team get help from a surprising source, the result is stunning and unexpected-and its one that concerned Americans will certainly reflect upon for decades to come.
The next LeaderShift is almost here.

LeaderShift
Orrin Woodward and Oliver DeMille offer a third way out. The old left-right arguments died with the Cold War. The spending that brought the Soviet Union to its knees is now about to sink the West. This book is a brilliant wake-up call.
Doug Wead, former adviser to two American presidents, New York Times bestselling author
This book rises high above partisanship with real suggestions that are deep, thought-provoking, and incredibly original. The Five Laws of Decline introduced in this book will make a significant contribution to the national discourse.
Chris Brady, New York Times bestselling coauthor of Launching a Leadership Revolution
This is probably one of the most important and powerful books written for the times we are inas well as coming times. Orrin and Oliver have woven a story so compelling and so rich that it forces you to turn the next page. The underlying message with the Five Laws is so brilliantly crafted that (and I do not use this word often) this book is genius.
Doug Firebaugh, cofounder of Home Business Radio Network
Whether a Republican, Democrat, Independent, or Libertarian, if you are saddened by our countrys declining abundance, real hope has arrived. It happens to be in the form of a story that just might be, to our time, what Thomas Paines Common Sense was to his.
Bob Burg, coauthor of The Go-Giver
Woodward and DeMille combine their knowledge of history, philosophy, science, systems thinking, economics, and government to explain the challenges facing America from the Five Laws of Decline. This non-political book explains how to fix the government gridlock and end the political smoke and mirrors so prominent in our society today.
Tim Marks, bestselling author of Voyage of a Viking
Every once in a while in the course of history, a LeaderShift occurs. It usually comes unexpectedly, and it transforms the world for at least a generation. Past LeaderShifts include:
The historical switch from kings and chiefs to community fathers such as doctors, lawyers, and town merchants
The 1880s1920s transition from city fathers to titans of industry, like Carnegie, Morgan, and Rockefeller
The 1940s1970s shift from business tycoons to managers, spurred by the work of Edward Deming and innovators from Jack Welch to Sam Walton
The 1980s1990s transition from managers to leaders, influenced by sages like Buckminster Fuller, Earl Nightingale, and Stephen Covey
Today, we are in the early stages of another great transition. Is your family, business, or nation prepared for the coming LeaderShift?
From Orrin: To my wife for her unyielding belief; to many leaders for their courageous words; and to freedom fighters throughout history for their sacrifice. I am inspired by your examples.
From Oliver: To James, George, Thomas, and John. Better friends and mentors are beyond my capacity to imagine.
What happens when a top leadership consultant who loves education (Orrin) combines with a great educator who has spent his career promoting leadership (Oliver) to write a book? The synergy of minds as we worked together on this project was magical. We were both surprised and moved by the results. We truly loved working together! Add to this mix our editor and friend Rick Wolffs impressive ability to turn good to great, and The LeaderShift was created. Indeed, Ricks comments, suggestions, and encouragement inspired us, and took the book to the next level.
We would like to thank our families, friends, business associates, and the many students who, over the years, have asked the tough questions that sharpened our thinking.
Special recognition to mastermind members Tim Marks, Claude Hamilton, George Guzzardo, Bill Lewis, and Dan Hawkins. Your drive for excellence in all areas is contagious!
Thanks to Laurie Woodward and Rachel DeMille (who read every version of the manuscript and provided numerous invaluable suggestions), Chris Brady and Stephen Palmer (who always urged us to turn a story on its head), and research assistant Sara DeMille (who endured the insane hours of a night-owl writer, helped put the polish on the end product, and was never afraid to argue a point when it really counted).
Oliver gives a special note of thanks to W. Cleon Skousen, his beloved mentor, and one of the earliest watchmen to see what was being lost and how to reclaim it. He believed unswervingly in the capability of regular men and women to govern themselves and the nation with wisdom and virtue.
Furthermore, special appreciation goes to the team at Business Plus, especially Meredith Haggerty and Carolyn Kurek. Their professionalism and expertise helped improve the book in so many ways, and they made the entire process enjoyable.
Lastly, we would like to thank our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ for His amazing grace and love.
Great men are they who see that thoughts rule the world.
R ALPH W ALDO E MERSON
Still watching, Mr. President. Nothing this year so far.
