Thank you to all those who participated in reading Book 1 - Leaders Eat Last by Simon Sinek. Book two will be Never Split the Difference by Chris Voss.
The goal of this group is to read a leadership or personal development type book & discuss with your fellow community leaders at Rotary. We will discuss for 10-15 minutes or so after the meeting on Friday, September 24th.
So come with ideas... No need to RSVP, we’re going to keep this very informal.
