Through the stories of a number of unsung heroes, Sanborn reveals the keys each one of us can use to improve our organizations and enhance our careers.
Genuine leadership – leadership with a “little l”, as he puts it, is not conferred by a title, or limited to the executive suite. Rather, it is shown through our everyday actions and the way we influence the lives of those around us. Among the qualities that genuine leaders share:
• Acting with purpose rather than getting bogged down by mindless activity
• Caring about and listening to others
• Looking for ways to encourage the contributions and development of others rather than focusing solely on personal achievements
• Creating a legacy of accomplishment and contribution in everything they do
As readers across the country discovered in The Fred Factor, Mark Sanborn has an unparalleled ability to explain fundamental business and leadership truths through simple stories and anecdotes. You Don’t Need a Title to Be a Leader offers an inspiring message to anyone who wants to take control of their life and make a positive difference.

A friendly, commonsense approach to leadership promotes collaboration, participation, respect, commitment, and community. Mark Sanborn is an excellent speaker, who is perfectly in tune with the values behind his ideas and examples. Anyone can become an activist, a change agent, and a pioneer instead of getting caught up in the prevailing corporate culture of self-importance, fear, and blind compliance with authority. More than just a feel-good nudge, the ideas sound fresh and sell themselves with their clarity. Whether at work or at home or in one's community, leading means serving others better, making the world a better place, and looking for ways to help rather than focusing on rewards or recognition.
