Have you ever seen a naked mole rat? No, neither have I. But they have leadership lessons to teach us. Oh yes. Along with spiders, giraffes, sea cucumbers and other denizens of the animal kingdom.

Julie C. Henry, a leadership consultant,  captures lessons learned from being a zoo and aquarium senior leader and shares all in her book Wisdom from the Wild: The Nine Unbreakable Laws of Leadership from the Animal Kingdom. This is a terrific book.  

Just one example: Unbreakable Law #5: Surround yourself with people who are not like you.

(Termite meet giraffe – giraffe meet termite).

Oh my.
