The Promises of Giants is for anyone who aspires to make a difference. Over fourteen promises, it intertwines personal anecdotes with the latest research to provide practical, proven tips and strategies to empower you to maximize your own potential and inspire others. It is a how-to guide for winning, rooted in the belief that the most unlikely of people, in the most improbable of circumstances, can become extraordinary.

We have never needed people with the skill and will to collaborate to create a better world more than now. We need people who are willing to fill the leadership void. People who will embrace the influence they have. People who believe in improving society and workplace culture - not only because it makes life better, but because it is proven to yield positive results. We need more leaders.

An absolute must read.

A clear and compassionate book on how to relate to people better. Every leader and every person should read this.

I love John Amaechi

The combination of voice and wisdom is rivalled only by my recent listening to Obama's book. I was introduced John through The Lebatard Show and find him and this book to be a guide leaders should aspire to in work and in life.

Great insight

Enjoyed learning about leadership from his perspective. It was one that I hadn’t heard before

Masterful and Impactful

The author has very personal and relatable stories and the content and subject matter are dense. You will reread and think, reread and think before you can move on. This book has changed how I think about my interactions within my team, but also with the world at large and everyone around me. Super impactful and a book I will think about for many many years to come.

The first leadership book in a long while

This is the first leadership book in a long while that touched me as a human being, not just a leader. A must read.
