This is a simple, easy to read book. No surprises here. Resilient leaders act decisively and with integrity. They also lead with optimistic vision. I had difficulty with some of the people the author saw as resilient leaders. On the other hand, reading about people like Civil War hero, Joshua Chamberlain was inspiring.
This book is a good book as far as leadership books go but not a must read. I got some good illustrations and quotes by reading but not much new in terms of information.
