Featured Reviews

Scott Comey has been in roles more emphasizing the manager or the leader and can share from experience what the differences are and why you should develop leadership skills. In Are You a Manager or a Leader? How to Inspire Results Through Others, he explains leaders tell the truth to build trust and loyalty, whereas managers may tend to use a command-and-control approach, hiding adverse details. The author uses examples from his field of expertise, real estate, coaching practice, to turn the dial in your life and business.

Self-knowledge and awareness are addressed. Where managers focus on the status quo, and efficiently running business-as-usual, leaders seek to exploit opportunities for personal growth and fostering their business. Facts and figures are crucial to surviving in these challenging times. The book's content is a mixture of well-known ideas, personal stories, historical backgrounds, inspiration, and small steps towards a brighter future and flourish as leaders and their teams.

This book was a quick read that gives some good tips for being a leader in the workplace. Most of the books references other books with a few personal stories scattered throughout.

Thanks to the publisher and NetGalley for a copy to honestly review.

I received a copy of this book for free, and I leave my review voluntarily.

Scott Comey is CEO of Motto Mortgage Elite and RE/MAX Elite. In addition, Scott and his wife own a coaching company called Turn the Dial Coaching, which incorporates a podcast to help business owners and real estate agents achieve great things.

“The point here is don’t get too comfortable with current circumstances.”

This book is exceptionally heartfelt and filled with actual and verified practices to help you find leverage on that next step.

Scott speaks from his heart and shares so many relevant anecdotes that can be applied to any business or position within a business, not just his area of expertise.

The methods are simple but powerful, and Scott used real examples of how these methods produce results.

This is an excellent book to help you grow in your business, regardless of position. Investing in yourself is a meaningful way to promote your professional growth, and this book helps make the path a whole lot clearer.

Organisations need strong leadership, maybe now more than ever. Simple strategies, but ones that can be implemented. I read a lot of business books, and feel that often the main message is repeated across titles. I read these books as a reminder, motivational tool, and out of interest. The mark of a good business book, in my opinion, is good examples, conversational style, and implementable strategies to address the issue. This book has this. Thanks to NetGalley for a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
