Critics Review
“At 19 years old, my life changed forever when I was mentored by a true leader—a Giant, someone who had strength of character beyond the norm, was committed to self-mastery, and had developed extraordinary leadership abilities that enabled him to bring out the best in every person he led. In Leading Giants, Dave Durand will show you how to become that type of leader—a Giant who is capable of leading other Giants.” —Hal Elrod, International Bestselling Author, The Miracle Morning, Updated and Expanded Edition “This book provides powerful and practical advice relevant to the challenges facing leaders in today’s culture. Leading Giants covers the landscape of topics from value-based leadership to successfully building a healthy culture for your team and much more. It will not disappoint.” —Thomas S. Monaghan, Founder, Domino’s Pizza and Ave Maria University “Dave Durand provides profound insights grounded in timeless principles that can transform your everyday life. His book is a recipe for becoming an exceptional leader and, more importantly, a guide to becoming a truly magnanimous person.” —Kevin O’Brien, CEO, Best Version Media “Dave Durand not only lays out a plan to grow and lead your organization, but also provides a road map to leading yourself. Leading Giants is an approachable book with big ideas.” —Rich Galgano, Founder and CEO, Windy City Wire, and Managing Director, Carefree Capital “Leading Giants moves past the Pollyanna approach used by many of today’s ‘influencers’ and dives way into the core of true leadership. You can’t give what you don’t have. Dave shows you how to be the person worthy of leading true Giants. You’ve got to be a Giant to lead Giants.” —Joe Calloway, Author, Becoming a Category of One “In Leading Giants, Dave Durand offers counterintuitive leadership lessons based on his experiences founding, growing, and selling several companies. If you’re a leader who wants to scale profit and impact—and actually enjoy the journey—this book is for you.” —Matt Tenney, Founder, PeopleThriver, and Bestselling Author, Inspire Greatness “Dave Durand is a Giant amongst Giants. His advice, driven by years of successful leadership, exemplifies the modern executive who is more of a listener and consensus builder than the classic executive dictator of years gone by. This book is a must-read for anyone who wants to build and sustain an inclusive and results-oriented organization.” —Jeff Drazan, Managing Partner, Bertram Capital “As Dave Durand, a successful entrepreneur and business builder, writes, ‘most leaders are merely ineffective managers in a position of authority.’ To avoid this outcome, use Dave’s time-proven template, developed over 35 years, for how leaders must behave to maximize their impact on the organizations they oversee … Dave lives by a well-defined system of self-management techniques that he credits with allowing him to reach the pinnacle of success” —Reed Phillips, CEO, Oaklins“At 19 years old, my life changed forever when I was mentored by a true leader—a Giant, someone who had strength of character beyond the norm, was committed to self-mastery, and had developed extraordinary leadership abilities that enabled him to bring out the best in every person he led.
