Leadership is one of the most profoundly complex, and at the same time, incredibly simple concepts.

John C. Maxwell states it well, “Leadership is influence.” Influence is simple and easy to understand. If you are influencing someone to do, say, or think something different, you are leading them. But understanding why, how, when, and who you are influencing becomes complex. “How do I increase my influence (leadership) with others?” is a question all of us should devote significant time, thought, and consideration to.

We all want, and at some level need, to be successful in life. And, we need influence to be successful.

Regardless of whether you are a stay-at-home-mom or the CEO of a multi-billion dollar organization, the principles in Leadership Gems will help you become more successful, more influential, and a higher level leader.

“The most dangerous leadership myth is that leaders are born – that there is a genetic factor to leadership…” ~ Warren Bennis 

In Leadership Gems & Leadership Gems for women, Ria has packed 30 precious “gems” of leadership wisdom on characteristics of influence – and insight on how you can develop them yourself. Ria has combined her years of experience in leadership roles of different organizations along with years of studying, teaching, training, and speaking on leadership to give you these 30 simple, yet profound and powerful, lessons to help you become more successful and influential at home, at work, at church, or in your community.

  • Excellent collection for character building!

    Easy to read! Great insight. I like at the end of each chapter how the author gives practical application advice. ~Ms. ERob (amazon review)

  • An easy to read collection of truths

    A very thought provoking, and easy to read collection of truths. Many of the qualities/characteristics were not unknown, but Ria explains them in a way such that they are easy to remember, thus making it easier for the reader to understand and practice great leadership. ~ J. Johnson (Amazon review)
