8 Timeless Leadership Principles

In 40 years, this is the best collection of leadership advice I have found.

Applied Wisdom distills eight leadership principles from James C. Morgan, a renowned CEO and philanthropist.

These principles offer a practical, values-driven approach to leadership – one that honors both your strategic vision and your humanity.

They remind us that great leadership isn’t just about driving results; it’s about staying true to your core values, fostering trust, and recognizing your need for rest and renewal.

YOU ARE BUSY. SO IS YOUR TEAM

Designed for busy leaders, the Applied Wisdom principles are easy to absorb and practical, helping you navigate real-world challenges with clarity and confidence.

Consider it your leadership compass – ready to guide you, one principle at a time and 100% free of charge.
