My friend and leadership expert Mike Figliuolo will soon release what promises to be an amazing book: One Piece of Paper.

Mike’s got an incredible resume. He’s a West Point grad, former faculty member at Duke, worked for McKinsey and Company and held other leadership roles. A few years ago he founded thoughtLEADERS which is doing cutting edge work in improving leadership, communication, strategy and operational skills.

One Piece of Paper promises to be a work that helps leaders focus on what really matters. I’ll include a brief preview below. And here’s the Facebook page for One Piece of Paper.

BTW…I hope to be doing some work with Mike in the near future. We both believe that effective leaders have excellent communication skills, and when we can align our schedules I think we’ll come up with some compelling new content. More on that here later; it’s a project I really need to get working on!

About One Piece of Paper:

Based on Mike’s popular “Leadership Maxims” training course, One Piece of Paper teaches leaders how to articulate their philosophy on a single piece of paper. By asking themselves a series of simple yet thought-provoking questions across four aspects of leadership, readers create a concise, powerful and deeply meaningful set personal leadership maxims. The result is a living document that serves as a behavioral touchstone for leaders and their teams.
