About the Book

There is an epidemic of dissension in our world today. Dysfunction leads the news footage. Educational systems don't teach the next generation how to succeed. When people are called upon to lead, they follow instead. They follow the news, the crowds, the fads, the latest curriculum's, and the whims of politicians. The Courage to Lead explains what it takes to stand up. It does not take much. When people can muster up even a pinky's worth of courage and follow the Five C's of Leadership, a world-wide shift can occur. What are the Five C's of Leadership? Compassion, Character, Critical Thinking, Common Sense, and Courage. It's time to Stand Up and Speak up. Learn how and why in The Courage to Lead.
About the Author: Founder and CEO of the international leadership and consulting company, L.E.A.D.E.R.S.H.I.P 1st, and the nationally recognized non-profit organiza-tion, Stand Up America, Derrick Boles has been said to "embody Education, Leadership, and Inspiration." Derrick is recognized as a thought leader in human development and organizational behavior. He is also known for his expertise in leadership and for his authentic training models. As a speaker, Derrick has reached over 80,000 people within the last year. Focused on his innovative approach to developing the "whole" indi-vidual and using what has been called his "Hearts and Minds" approach, Derrick has become one of the most sought after motivational speakers in the country. Derrick's message and his "courage to lead" have earned him national and international recognition. He has been able to build mean-ingful and lasting relationships with corporations, educational institutions, civil authority agencies and national youth groups which has earned him respect and the formal title as a "Leader of Leaders." Raised in Detroit, Michigan in a single-parent household, Derrick often speaks about how his neighborhood bred violence and dysfunction, and how he was able to overcome what looked like insurmountable odds. His low socio-economic status, educational background and cultural history provided the foundation for his future understanding of a youth's need for leadership. That foundation later became the driving force behind Derrick's program, Stand Up America, whose mission is to challenge, educate, in-spire and mobilize community based organizations and leaders to "Stand Up" for community empowerment. Since founding the Stand Up America program, Derrick has expanded his reach by creating adjunct programs such as, Stand Beautiful, a program for girls and young women, and 100 Men Standing, for young men. These programs are now being sought after worldwide.
