By: Rick Boxx

Many as children learned of the Daniel and the lion’s den story. But fewer have studied the fascinating story of Daniel and his amazing leadership skills that took a kidnapped teenager from being a servant to a tyrant to becoming the second most powerful leader in the world.

The Unconventional Leader is a leadership parable inspired by the life and leadership principles of the Biblical character of Daniel. Dan Cox is a modern-day Daniel who finds himself and his three friends forced to move from management trainee positions in a small software company to Silicon Valley. Just like the Biblical character of Daniel, Dan gets thrown into the proverbial lion’s den constantly, facing challenge after challenge.

But when Dan begins to be mentored by his grandfather’s former business partner he learns six leadership principles from the life of Daniel that changed his life, transformed Dan’s workplace and Dan’s career soared.

These six leadership principles are timeless and can be instrumental in helping you navigate today’s demanding workplace. This parable is fast paced, engaging, and full of inspiring illustrations of courageous faith and solid business acumen. It will provide you the tools and wisdom to become an unconventional leader just like Dan and Daniel.

Modern day parable hits home

I love the way Rick adapts the book of Daniel in the Bible to a modern setting that is relatable. Great storytelling with just enough detail to get some really good leadership principles across tot he reader
