While the book has many interesting points and is written well. The biggest problem I have is that every time you turn around it's also about the author's relationship with God. Which is fine in a limited context, but when it appears page after page after page, I no longer feel like I'm reading a book about kids.

These are great authors and any book that focuses on kids being seen and developed as leaders is a great recommend from KidLead, America's only leadership development training program for 10-13 year olds (www.kidlead.com).

I bought this book because I wanted to learn how to better train my children to grow up to be leaders. As I started reading I quickly found that this book isn't just for parents of children, but for anybody who wants to learn what it means to be a better leader themselves.
Coaching provides example after example of leaders in business, sports and politics and how they learned to develop themselves into leaders. Many of their stories talk about how they became leaders early on in childhood because of mentors, teachers and parents who pushed them to be something great.
Each chapter takes the reader through the leadership process, what it means and how to become and effective leader. Coaching is simultaneously an inspirational book while also providing solid points, tips and strategies in developing oneself (or one's children) into strong leaders. No leadership rock is left unturned or secret uncovered.

This wonderful volume extends the authors knowledge of sports leadership into all walks of life. With many practical applications and plentiful material from myriad sources, this is among my very favorite leadership books.
Don't be fooled into thinking this book is only for making leaders of children. This is just as applicable to subordinates and perhaps even to a floundering but teachable superior. It's highly accesible while remaining concise and never overstating a point.

What a great age to be living in when men like Pat Williams, father of nineteen and sports executive for more than forty years, pour out their years of learning on the rest of us. He gives us a fully balanced picture in this treasure chest of encouragement, including interviews with hundreds of leaders throughout America.
Coaching Your Kids to be Leaders offers a thorough examination of leadership styles and advice. Williams begins by identifying the need for young leaders. One look at today's headlines and we are in agreement with him. He builds a case for leadership training in the home, takes a look at its nature, then tells us how to identify leadership potential in young people (and even the not so young people!)
Williams and his writing partner, Jim Denney, offer sound direction and seven easy to grasp principles for putting our kids on the path toward success: see a vision; be a good communicator; build good people skills; build good character; build competence; be bold; and most important-be a servant.
Practical instruction in how to mentor kids wraps up this complete picture. Who could resist the call to be a hero to some young person? If that role appeals to you, then this book is a tool you'll need to get there.
