LEADERSHIP AND SELF-DECPTION (in 9 pages) Book Outline

Leadership and Self- Deception by the Arbinger Institute (Outline in 9 pages)






This book completely changed my perspective on the way I view people, loved ones, challenges, and myself.  The main story line is fictional but the examples used are real accounts told as if they were all part of one company’s and person’s application of the principles taught at the Arbinger institute.   The book teaches us that instead of focusing on changing our behaviors or our attitudes towards others we need to change the root cause of those attributes which is our mindset.  By changing our mindset or the way we view others we can effectively influence and interact with desired results.  The book teaches us of Self-Deception which is our misguided or distorted perception of others and ourselves.  We learn of the damaging effects it has in our relationships, how we develop these perceptions and the ways we can eliminate them.  By applying the principles taught in this book my relationships have become more valuable, my confidence increased, and life is simply more enjoyable for me and those around me.

Use the book outline as a quick reference guide, detailed summary of the book or a reading guide.  Download the FREE book outline for Leadership and Self-Deception.

THE FIVE LOVE LANGUAGES in 8 Pages (Book Outline)

The Five Love Languages in 8 Pages (Book Outline)

Author: Gary Chapman



After reading this book I’ve become more aware of ways that I can improve my marriage and relationships and express love to my spouse in the most meaningful ways. There is a golden rule that states “Treat others the way you want to be treated.” That phrase should be updated to the Platinum Rule, “Treat other the way they want to be treated.” This book helps identify 5 specific ways in which you can love and treat others the way they desire. We have all been conditioned or raised differently and develop unique ways in which we communicate and recognize love. The way we express love to others may not be understood. This book will help you learn how to express love to those around you in the most meaningful ways.

We received this book as a wedding gift. As a proud newly wed and a manly man it was hard to find the motivation to pick up and read.  It wasn't until a few years and children down the road that I was able to commit to reading the book and found what I had been missing.  

I put together a free book outline of all the important points in just 8 pages.  Use it as a quick guide to the book or a stand alone instruction manual.  Download The 5 Love Languages (Book Outline) for Free.

This book may appear out of place among business and entrepreneur books but knowing how to treat people and express your appreciation to them is a vital part to running a successful business.  Many of the principals taught in this book don't just help marriages but also general relationships.
