To Lead Is to Teach: Stories and Strategies from the Classroom to the Boardroom Jim Mahoney

"I wish I'd been able to read this book before becoming Governor. Mahoney's charm, wit, and wisdom-drawn from deep experience-will guide today's and tomorrow's leaders to achieve the results they desire."

-Robert (Bob) Taft, Distinguished Research Associate (University of Dayton) and former Governor of Ohio 1999-2007




"To Lead Is to Teach is sensitive, powerful, and deeply insightful. Jim Mahoney is a masterful storyteller who beautifully weaves his personal narrative into a font of lessons for life and leading. In doing so, he captures us in a place of beautiful reflection so we can each become stronger and wiser."

-Deborah S. Delisle, CEO, The Alliance for Excellent Education and former Assistant Secretary, U. S. Dept. of Education




"To Lead Is to Teach is packed with stories and lessons for emerging and senior leaders to use as a roadmap within their own organizations. Regardless of profession, leaders can quickly reference 'The Mahoney Three' and apply them now. As a Marine colonel with over 30 years of service, I have a few books I take with me in my travels, and To Lead Is to Teach is one of those books."

-Jay Johnson, Academy Director, George Voinovich School of Leadership and Public Service, Ohio University




"I couldn't put this book down. Jim Mahoney has captured decades of wisdom in an easy-to-digest format that every leader can use to make organizations better for staff and those they serve."

-Paul Imhoff, Superintendent, Upper Arlington, Ohio, AASA President
