Millions of business professionals aspire to become effective leaders. But for hardworking, growth-oriented top performers who are always looking to improve and for rigorous thinkers who are never quite satisfied with the status quo, the true goal is the lifelong pursuit of excellence.

He found a pattern of uncommon behaviors that set these stellar individuals apart. By following their examples, you will learn how to:
