Sharpen: A Guidebook for Business Ownership and Adventures in Leadership By D. Cooper and D. Hiss

Abstract

Being in a position of leadership requires individuals to ask challenging questions of themselves and their organizations. Leaders have unique pressures, opportunities, and responsibilities. In Sharpen, Dan Cooper and Drew Hiss (2019) attempt to provide a framework for business leaders—one rooted in wisdom, excellence, and timeless truths. The book of Proverbs, attributed to King Solomon, serves as their source of inspiration. “Our aspiration for this book is to bring to life leadership principles written by history’s most successful leader, and help you amp your leadership effectiveness by making those ideas and principles simple to access and easier to apply” (p. 7).
