      “In my first foray into The Leadership Challenge world of Jim Kouzes and Barry Posner, I was presented with the idea that “The road to the future is unpaved.” This latest addition to their incredible literary toolbox provides the reader with a clear path to that future, one that clearly defines both the scenic route and potential roadblocks. It is current, timely, and instructive, and emphasizes above all that leadership truly is everyone's business.”

      “Local communities are facing unique challenges: social unrest, catastrophic weather events, and a need for truth and understanding. As a local news organization, Scripps has challenged ourselves to create an authentic connection with our viewers through essential journalism and meaningful storytelling. The Leadership Challenge provided the framework for our company to hold the discussions that help us manage change. Now, Jim Kouzes and Barry Posner take that to the next level, recognizing there are leaders at all levels and no one needs a title to be a leader.”

      —Brian Lawlor, President, Local Media, The E.W. Scripps Company
