LOVE LEADERSHIP
Welcome to my website dedicated to the growing global interest in "a new way to lead in a fear-based world." We all know that the world as we know it simply isn't working very well anymore. I think there is a good reason for this; most all of our incentives are fear-based, and most of our so-called leaders are leading by fear. This we must change. This we can change.
In this now bestselling business book (Inc. Magazine/CEO Read Bestseller List), I make the case that there are two things in the world; love and fear, and what you don't love you fear. Fear's first cousin is greed, as well as short-termism, a focus on me and not we, what do I get, and when do I get it, and a focus on "money" as product, versus the power of the idea (with money as the by-product). In a world obsessed with "what do I get," we must begin to ask a new question, which is "what do I have to give."
Enjoy the book LOVE LEADERSHIP, now available at major booksellers, online, in audiobook format with Audible.com and iTunes.com, as well as on Kindle.
Let's change the world, together.
I have watched John Hope Bryant dazzle audiences
from Harvard to the World Economic Forum with his
eloquence and his work in empowering the poor.
Now he pours his compassion and charisma into the
pages of this book, delivering a powerful message
about rediscovering our humanity. Having worked his
way up from the shadows of urban life to become a
successful global leader, John has developed a
personal philosophy that can help young leaders
everywhere.

The words love and leadership perfectly exemplify
John Hope Bryant and all that he stands for. When
it comes to making a difference and succeeding in
business and life, this book is a must-read for
todays current and future leaders.

John Hope Bryant tackles problems with an enthusiasm
and optimism that are infectious. In this powerful
book, he gives us a recipe for personal success
driven by a simple notion: treating others with respect
and dignity creates true long term success. This message
and his strategies for living it couldnt be more timely
as we address the failures of leadership that created
todays financial crisis.

A short conversation with John Hope Bryant in an obscure city in China changed
my outlook on financial literacy, leadership, and love. The short time you
spend reading this book will change yours. Changing the world starts with
changing your life, and John - from the slums of Compton to the White House
and more -will make this happen for you.
