THE 100-MILE WALK: A Father and Son on a Quest to Find the Essence of Leadership
By Sander A. Flaum and Jonathon A. Flaum with Mechele Flaum
ISBN#08144-0863X$24.95

What sort of definition of leadership do you get when you meld the perspectives of a 65-year-old traditional CEO with those of his son, a 36-year-old entrepreneur who is a student of Zen? The 100-Mile Walk recounts the authors’ trek and sets out their newfound knowledge in the form of nine points on which every leader (and aspiring leader) must focus. The 9 P's, as they refer to them, are: people, purpose, passion, performance, persistence, perspective, paranoia, principles, and practice.
