In Everyone Is a Leader (Including and Especially You!), I share over 100 powerful, inspiring stories of real people-athletes, entrepreneurs, first responders, coaches, parents, faith leaders, everyday heroes, and more-who stepped up, made a difference, and showed what leadership looks like in the real world.

– Lead with character and integrity
– Inspire and bring out the best in others

Who Will Benefit From Everyone Is a Leader (Including and Especially You!)?
Let me have some expert practitioners who have read the book answer that question:
Coaches
“Amazing book! Anyone interested in growing as a leader needs to read this book. The stories Brian shares are short, interesting, to the point, and great illustrations of leadership principles. We need more people to step up and lead. The principles in this book (if implemented) will add value to your leadership.” – Rich Maloney, Head Baseball Coach, Ball State University
Church Leaders
“There are some people in life that have a gift that props them up for others to see. However, there are some who use their gifts to help others be who they were created to be. Brian Dodd is one of those leaders who comes along and calls the best out of you! His newest book, ‘Everyone is a Leader,’ helps you & I be all that we were created to be by learning from other leaders like us! So good!” – Mike Linch, Senior Pastor NorthStar Church, Host of the Linch with a Leader Podcast
Business Leaders
“Here he goes again!! Brian has created an engaging and highly practical leadership resource that reminds readers leadership is about influence, not position. Through more than 100 memorable stories, Everyone Is a Leader (Including and Especially You!) delivers timeless leadership principles in a format that is easy to read, reflect on, and apply immediately. The book is filled with wisdom, humility, and biblical insight, making it valuable for both emerging and experienced leaders. Brian’s storytelling style keeps every chapter interesting while providing actionable lessons that can strengthen leadership at work, at home, in the church, and in the community. This is an encouraging, inspiring, and practical book that I would confidently recommend to anyone who wants to become a more intentional and effective leader.” – Chad Aukland, Vice President, INJOY Stewardship Solutions
Military Leaders
“I have been studying and exercising leadership for decades as a career military officer, Fortune 500 operations manager, mega church staff member and as a volunteer.This book isa precious pathway to wisdom. Brian exudes leadership as he guides us through illustrations and gleans insightful gifts. I am certain this book should never be a “One time read.” Conservatively, the pages includehundreds of excerpts—excellentquotes worth lifting and displaying as blueprints for sustained excellence in both life and leadership.Influence others! Share this bookasan inspiring gift!” – Robert Kaess, Colonel USAF, Retired
Athletic Directors
“As Brian writes in this book, “Average leaders react. Exceptional leaders prepare.” This book is an exercise in leadership preparation. From alignment and attunement to leading with humility, to clarity and consistency as competitive advantages, and the power of defining moments, Brian gives us a blueprint for turning everyday situations into opportunities for extraordinary influence. Only Brian Dodd can show us how Cool Ranch Doritos can teach transferable thinking, or what Bruce Springsteen and Tom Cruise can teach us about putting people first. To the everyday leader reading these pages: may this book sharpen your thinking, strengthen your preparation, and expand your influence. The stories that follow will remind you that leadership is not reserved for a select few, or those with the title. It is available in every moment, every decision, and every opportunity to serve others well.” – Jayme Pendergast, 2024 Women Leaders in Sports Nike NAIA Executive of the Year
Educators
“I often say that much more is written about leadership than is known. Why? Because leadership has a huge situational component. But that is Brian Dodd’s sweet spot. Situations. Carefully choose the most instructive situations, and principles emerge. Brian has written several leadership books, and each sits high on my list of instructive learning experiences. His writing is clear … his illustrative situations often profound. Anything Brian has written sits high on my ‘recommended’ list.” – George Manners, Emeritus Professor of Accounting and Management, Kennesaw State University

How Many Copies Should You Buy
Great question! My desire is to help you and those you influence win! If my content has ever benefitted you, here’s my request. I definitely want you to purchase a book. But I also want you to buy at least one other copy to share with someone else. As I have invested in you, my hope is you invest in others.
Sit down together. Each of you read a chapter or section and ask these three questions:
- What did you read?
- What did you learn?
- How are you applying it?
So how many copies should you buy? I hope at least two. But if you lead a team, I hope you buy copies for everyone you influence. Everyone wins when leaders get better.
Final Thought
It’s time to start thinking about Christmas gifts. Can you believe it! Everyone Is a Leader (Including and Especially You!) would communicate how much you believe in someone and want to see them reach their full potential.
