This book aspires to be something like "mom's homemade stuffed vegetables" rather than a printed gourmet treat for a few. It aims to tell its story and reach the ordinary person, who in order to survive in our time must do more than just "do their job"; the "fresh" supervisor who dives into the deep end without ever wondering what kind of boss they want to become; as well as the established CEO who delivers theoretical lessons on enlightened leadership but neglects the need to align words and actions. This book aims to address every person who, as a parent, employee, supervisor, teacher, friend, or partner, will be called upon to demonstrate leadership behaviors, simply to live better.

I did not write this book as a leader. I wrote it as a follower. After all, followers, or as the international term goes, "followers," are in fashion. So I am addressing you, aspiring or established leader. Do me a favor. Stop moving and look behind you. Do you see anyone there? How many truly follow you and why? If you can give an honest answer to this question and if you don’t like that answer, meaning you realize that you would like, should, or deserve to have more followers, keep reading. If not, then you probably feel that this book does not concern you.
