Practicing Excellence - by Anthony Randall

Book Synopsis

Practicing Excellence: Restoring Civility, Faith & Trusted Leadership in the Public Square by Dr. Anthony Randall presents a compelling exploration of the challenges facing contemporary society and the need to pursue a life of practicing excellence as trusted leaders of character.

It has earned global recognition, as the winner of the International Impact Book Awards for Social Change and has been adopted into a graduate program at Emory University.

Dr. Randall observes that America's civic public square, founded upon the virtues of classic liberalism, is being eroded by the destructive forces of incivility. These vices baffle the clear mind, burden the soul, and neutralize the courageous action of leaders who settle for mediocrity out of fear of being canceled or criticized for pursuing a life of excellence.

Dr. Randall calls for decisive action to teach and empower leaders of strong moral character to serve as trusted professionals in their communities, marketplaces, and the public square. By doing so, he aims to restore civility, faith, and trusted leadership by fostering a growth mindset through the teaching, training, and coaching of leaders of character to build high performance cultures grounded in character development, moral and ethical decision-making, and emotionally intelligent leadership that enhances human flourishing.

Additionally, he highlights the importance of faith-both in a personal and communal context-as a guiding principle for transformational leadership. He asserts that leaders who embody these values can inspire trust and collaboration among constituents, ultimately leading to more effective governance and a more engaged citizenry.

Practicing Excellence calls on readers to take action and reflect deeply on the principles shared through personal stories, historical lessons, research, and practical advice, then actively implement these insights to lead a more excellent life.

Prepare to align your passion, purpose, and precision ... to practice in a more excellent way, and contribute to transforming leaders and forging excellence in the world around you.
