The Go-Giver Leader

A Little Story About What Matters Most in Business




A revised, updated and retitled edition of Bob Burg and John David Mann's business parable It's Not About You

Ben is an ambitious young executive charged with persuading 500 employee shareholders to agree to a merger that will save their company. But despite his best efforts, he can't convince anyone to buy in to the deal.

During his week at the company, Ben realizes that his aggressive style is actually making it harder to reach his goals.

Will Ben find a way to sway the shareholders before the climactic vote? The answer may surprise you, as you follow Ben on his journey to understanding that the path to genuine influence lies less in taking leadership than in giving it.
