Top 5 Leadership Books

I try and read a lot.  In fact, long ago I made the commitment to read at least one chapter a day.  I don’t always get that done, but I found you can get through an amazing amount of reading if you just practice that one small habit.  I love reading on ministry, children’s ministry and, especially, on leadership.

So here are some of my favorite leadership books:

  • Leading Change by John P. Kotter
  • The Leadership Challenge by James M Kouzes
  • The Effective Executive by Peter Drucker
  • The 360 Degree Leader by John Maxwell
  • The 21 Laws of Leadership by John Maxwell

There are many others that I truly enjoy, but if I had to give just 5 books to a young leader, these would be the five.  You can see some of my other favorites and purchase them for yourself here.

How about you…what are your favorite leadership books?
