Do you want your children to be normal or different? Do you want them to be average or exceptional? Do you want them to be a drone or an individual? This story shows kids how Dave discovered strength and success hiding inside of his weaknesses. It echoes the lessons of Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer and Dumbo; the characterstics that make us weak and weird are the same ones that make us strong and unique. Instead of trying to eliminate our unusual qualities, we need to embrace them and amplify them.

This book combines the wisdom of ancient philosophers, successful executives and leadership gurus into a clear roadmap for leadership success. Using stories of famous leaders and infamous failures, the author illustrates the importance of the four factors: Influence, Integrity, Inspiration, and Improvement. These factors are contrasted with the pitfalls of ineffective leadership: Power, Position, Popularity, and Personality.
