About the Book

Those seeking to enhance and hone their executive skills need only remember: It always begins with leadership.

An authentic story containing personal insights, humor, and "real talk" from a municipal executive with over thirty years of experience, this book is designed to cultivate leadership skills. It's most applicable for those aspiring to become city managers, yet it encourages people to lead from wherever they are. 

Written by an African American who has served in four large cities in different parts of the country, the information presented is both unique and relevant to today’s aspiring leaders. This is not a textbook; rather, it recounts a personal journey of one city manager’s experience with leadership.
