About this listen

We all face countless decisions throughout our careers. The specific circumstances that call us to lead will be different, but the core dilemmas and ethical challenges are very similar. Faced with these challenges, each of us must decide if we will follow our ego-centered inclinations or lead for the good of everyone whose lives we touch? Will we endanger or impair those around us to satisfy our own self-interest, or will we lead in a manner that is true to our values?

In his inspiring book Lead True, Jeff Thompson MD has masterfully compiled stories from the business, healthcare, and education fields, illustrating how a diverse group of leaders has employed values-based leadership and succeeded. These case studies offer dynamic, living narratives that demonstrate ways in which a leader, fueled by personal values, can change people, organizations, and even entire industries.

What sets this book apart is the interweaving of the author's personal leadership story in healthcare to the insights from start-ups, mid-career, and top-level leaders-people who have proven that values-driven leadership is not simply a noble idea but one that actually works in practice. The author artfully shows that the goal of leadership is not to move one individual ahead of all others. When you lead true, you can move everyone forward-people, organizations, and communities - finding the best route for all.

I’ve read more than a few of these healthcare leadership books. This one stands head and shoulders above so many of them. It’s honest, straightforward, and clear. It’s a guiding beacon that we can all use to make our healthcare industry and communities better. Thank you for writing this and being so “disciplined, courageous, and durable”.
