“Brian Ward issues a challenge to readers who desire to be great leaders â�� honestly answer Brian’s five critical questions and you’ll learn a whole lot about yourself and your leadership focus”

– Sandi L. Humphrey, CAE, Editor, Association Magazine

“What a refreshing new voice…! Many talk the concept of leading people, but few actually give the many different facets and their explanations of how to lead people.”

– Danielle M. Wilson, Physician Center Manager, Newark, Ohio, USA

“When I learned to do these things effectively, things took a real turn for the better. My reputation in the field I work in got a major boost. I started developing programs for disadvantaged youth (currently up and working) and I started to get offers for promotions.

I have to say that when I found The FACET Leadership Model I did not know where to turn. I was drifting and struggling to put pieces together. I am now very confident that I can accomplish about anything I undertake.

The big difference is that I now have a system to work. A system that works. I recommend this program to all. Get involved. You have nothing to lose but bad habits. What you have to gain is a proven system that works. Thanks and best wishes”

– Roger W. Noe, State of Kentucky, Central Region Mental Health
