The Heart of a Leader
by Dr. (Colonel) Josh McConkey
Gabe loves to play soccer. He's not the best player on the team, but he is the heart of the team. Read how the team comes together through adversity and triumph.
The Heart of a Leader is the first book in the Be the Weight: Little Lessons for Big Leaders series, which inspires children to grow into courageous, kind, and capable leaders. Based on the principles of Be the Weight Behind the Spear, each beautifully illustrated story explores a core trait—leadership, integrity, empathy, and service and helps children discover that true leadership begins with doing the right thing, even when it’s hard.
"Teach your children about standards and expectations. Teach them to look you straight in the eye and tell the truth." —Coach Krzyzewski, Former Duke University Basketball Coach Presentation at Duke University, Dec.15, 2016
