For over two-decades, I have found myself attracted to reading books on leaders and leadership. When I decided on Rubenstein's book it was a semi-impulse purchase. I really thought what new could I discover on the topic. I learned of David Rubenstein recently as a co-chair of the 2023 National Book Festival I attended. I crossed paths with him on his way to his C-Span Book 2 interview about the festival. After watching the interview briefly, I thought, hmm, this guy is quirky but serious about promoting reading. Only recently did I find out about his extensive background. So, I bought the book, thinking, well if I buy it and find nothing new, I can always give it away to readers new to the leadership genre. I may still do that. It was much of the same information you read in articles or watch in interviews of the well-known. The real difference was the message that ordinary people can do extraordinary things in a lifetime. Yes, of course, those profiled are renowned, distinguished, rich and all-that. Rubenstein has just a slightly different point he gets to the heart of. Read deeper and you find that different people have unique potential. When you are curious, courageous and focus on that one thing unique to you, you can become a leader too, maybe never as renowned but just as important and what the world needs.
