Reviews from Amazon users which were colected at the time this book was published on the website:

⭐Extensive coverage on human relations at the workplace. Specific instructions for self-training leaders. I liked it for its concise presentations and up-to-date personal management tools.

⭐It has some good points but not what I was really looking for

⭐The stuff on the brain was simple and really well explained

⭐thanks for your dealing i will deal again and again with you because it was nice to deal with you

⭐Recommend this book for anyone wanting to peruse a great career or have leadership skills to teack, great references and so much more

⭐The Leadership Brain for Dummies, does an excellent job of translating brain research into practical applications for current and future leaders. I now understand my own brain and the brains of those in my organization, feel I have increased my ability to lead others toward change , and finally see the real differences between working with men and women. This leadership book offers something for everyone. Whether you are already a leader or have the desire to become a leader, the suggestions, stories, and steps will “lead “you in the right direction. According to Sprenger, leadership is learned, and I feel I am learning to be the leader I want to be.

⭐I’ve read a lot of books on the brain, but I hadn’t seen one attached to leadership. I found the information reinforced some of what I know about leadership, but with the “why” — knowing how it’s all attached to the way people think and the way their brains work — made it much more meaningful. I now understand what it takes to make trainings stick and why so much professional development is a waste of time. I can reach customers and coworkers on a different level as long as I keep the brain in mind. I am following what Sprenger says, and I already see positive changes in my life.

⭐Since there hadn’t been anything on the leadership brain before and I like to read leadership books, I thought I would give this one a try. The author gives some great advice and some background information I certainly never knew. I am going to apply some of the brain strategies in this book. It’s a good addition to my leadership library.
