Through this book, I wanted leaders to see how they can authentically inspire with empathy and confidence, and successfully motivate others to follow by example, the definition of a mensch-leader. The book offers a kind of transformative journey in leadership —one that can be applied to both professional and personal life destinations.

". . . she offers no-nonesense advice."
"Every once in a while a book is written that is as rich with heart as it is with skills and applications. This book is a must-read for anyone who has come to grips with the fact leadership is not about exercising authority. It's about setting a clear example. Every reader can find something for themselves to work on in this soon to be business classic."
"The uniqueness of this book is Bruna Martinuzzi's ability to universally assimilate the word 'mensch' into today's leadership lexicon. Fluent in six languages, a global workplace coach, and a mensch herself-I'd say her affinity to the human elements of growth and change will have a global and lasting effect on all of our tomorrows."
"This book is an invaluable and timely tool in the field of executive coaching. Bruna Martinuzzi has positioned emotional intelligence as the centerpiece in leadership by describing the 'emotionally intelligent mensch' which exemplifies what we should strive for in leaders."
