"True leadership delivers purpose beyond your paycheck and in this book, you’ll find direction and inspiration to bring true leadership to your team. Combining Maslow’s hierarchy of needs and Lencioni’s Five Dysfunctions of a team, Albrecht and Jardin show us how our teams are supposed to behave. When needs are met, and trust is felt, then our teams thrive."

-Mark Burgess
