Hans Finzel in his new book, “The Top Ten Leadership Commandments” Book Two in the Top Ten series published by David C. Cook provides us with an essential guide to effective leadership.

From the back cover:  And you thought your job was tough.

The life of Moses offers a master study in leadership.  Called to do the impossible, Moses became an ambassador to kings and a leader of millions, while making a profound mark on history.  His life was defined by purpose, service and vision.  Simply put, it was a life that made a difference.

In this dynamic follow-up to “The Top Ten Mistakes Leaders Make”, Dr. Hans Finzel presents the next chapter in his innovative series on leadership.  “The Top Ten Leadership Commandments” explores the trials and triumphs of one of history’s greatest leaders.  Based on sound Biblical truths and extensive research, this essential guide to effective leadership shares ten foundational principles that can revolutionize your career, impact your business and change your life.

You are in a position of leadership or you will be in a position of leadership and you feel like a fish out of water.  Fear not so did Moses.  Remember he tried to talk God out of giving him the job before he even got started.  It was an impossible job and Moses made mistakes but he fixed them and moved on.  The important thing to realize is that he led, boy did he ever, an entire nation from slavery to the brink of The Promised Land.  Now this is someone to emulate.

“The Top Ten Leadership Commandments” is a tool book.  Dr. Finzel gives ten leadership commandments taken from a study of the life of Moses.  1) Thou Shalt Cling To The Vision, 2) Thou Shalt Not Serve Thine Own Ego, 3) Thou Shalt Practice Servant Leadership, 4)  Thou Shalt Be Opposed, Resisted, And Misunderstood, 5) Thou Shalt Have A Life, 6) Thou Shalt Sweat The Small Stuff, 7) Thou Shalt Spend Time In The Tent, 8) Thou Shalt Lead To Leave, 9) Thou Shalt Never Give Up, 10) Thou Shalt Keep Thine Eyes On The Prize.  You feel like you want to throw in the towel and walk away then you need to read this book.  You feel as though you are stuck in your leadership abilities and not going anywhere then this book is for you.  If you are in any type of leadership then you should read this book, put it on your shelf and come back to it every time you need too.  Which may be often.  Let’s live our leadership abilities God’s Way just like Moses did!
