Toronto, Canada: Imagine a world where every man, woman, and child saw themselves as a leader.

In THE LEADER WHO HAD NO TITLE: A Modern Fable on Real Success in Business and in Life (Free Press; March 23, 2010, $21.99), leadership expert and bestselling author Robin Sharma offers a parable designed to help people from all walks of life - and the organizations they are involved in - create extraordinary success. From the janitor to the CEO, the student to the taxi driver, this book can benefit anyone.

Yet, this is not your average business book. How could it be? Sharma, after all, self-published his first book, THE MONK WHO SOLD HIS FERRARI out of a Kinko's copy shop, and it’s gone on to sell over three million copies worldwide and attracted fans like Taylor Swift and Jon Bon Jovi.Using the same reader‐friendly style, with easy-to-remember acronyms and takeaway tips the reader can put to use immediately, Sharma’s THE LEADER WHO HAD NO TITLE divulges the skills and attitudes needed to excel in business and life.

The story begins like this: Blake Davis is a down-on-his-luck. US war veteran trying to make ends meet. His parents are gone, his job at a local bookstore is unsatisfying, and he is disenchanted with the world around him. One day, an eccentric family friend approaches him and offers him a life altering opportunity: spend one full day studying the mantras of a mysterious group of teachers and learn the secrets of limitless success. Blake is skeptical, but something compels him to take the opportunity seriously. The next morning, he embarks on a journey to discover the true meaning of the LWT philosophy—Lead Without a Title. He is ushered through the teachings of the four teachers—Anna, a hotel maid who teaches him that every job can be done with passion; Ty, a ski champion who reminds him how important it is to rise to the riskiest challenges; Jackson, a gardener (and former CEO) who shows him the value of great relationships; and Jet, a superstar massage therapist who proves that greatness begins within. Blake's world changes as the teachers make him realize his own potential to achieve greater things than he'd ever imagined.

This simple yet powerful story puts forth a complete system for leadership and authentic success. Key points include:

  • The importance of taking personal responsibility for results, regardless of your title.
  • How high performers in business create their breakthrough achievements
  • Why turbulent times build great leaders
  • Strategies to develop a winning mindset that allows you to succeed amidst time of deep change
  • How the best organizations get better
  • Expressing the best within so that you realize your highest level

  • Look at the backlash toward government, with a sizeable contingent of people trying to take control back, from Wall Street to Main Street, through tea party conventions and seat upsets. Or look at people who've lost their jobs and are now pursuing a different path: their passion. You don't need a title to lead or create a movement.
    For more than fifteen years, Robin Sharma has been sharing his formula for success with Fortune 500 companies and many of the super?rich; it's made him one of the most sought?after leadership advisers in the world. Now, for the first time, Sharma makes his proprietary process available to the general public, so that people can get to their absolute best while helping their organization break through to a dramatically new level of winning in these wildly uncertain times.
    THE LEADER WHO HAD NO TITLE is powerful, engaging and packed with real?world lessons to help people achieve extraordinary results and reach their potential in business and life.
