“Everyday Leaders is equal parts personal development and a great ‘how-to’. Read this book and you’ll be inspired to stop pursuing leadership and start living it! Wilson Leung has a keen ability to break down difficult concepts into practical, clear guideposts on the road to successful leadership. His weekly applications will challenge readers to take simple steps toward leadership development.”
Dave Toycen, President and CEO, World Vision Canada
“This is a must-read leadership handbook that merges universal leadership best practices with core values and maximizes our ability to bring positive influence into both our personal and professional lives.”
Sachi Kittur, Vice-President of Human Resources, Mercatus Technologies
“I found the book very easy to read in one sitting. It has an easy and logical flow. The consistent structure of each chapter helped greatly. I am beginning each day with a re-reading of the chapter’s theme, and putting the daily application into practice. On one hand, it is heartening to recognize the Everyday Essentials I already practice as a leader, and on the other hand, it is so useful to see how many others I can either adopt or improve upon in my daily life. Thank you so much for this easy-to-use manual for a busy professional!”
Paul Dowsett, Principal Architect, SUSTAINABLE.TO
“Everyday Leaders is a book for the nightstand. Leung captures the true essence of leadership in an easy-to-read format filled with reflections that are inspirational and worth a second, a third read. The book is a reassurance that we are all capable of reaching out, making a difference and influencing others through positive actions, and that good leadership is maximized by a sound vision with purpose and clarity. This book is a must for all who aspire to make a difference.”
Karen Sitarek, Principal Toronto District School Board
