Leadership books present a quandary—they need to tell a story but they also need to be believable as something that can be replicated, preferably without excess effort.
What often results, even among well-written, smart reads, are books that are short on data and long on anecdotes and checklists. What data there is often is situation-specific information that the author, by necessity, stretches to encompass a philosophy.
