Review
A lively, easy-to-read book that explains a leadership style for people of all ages. -- Shirley Chaska Baird, LtCol, USAF Ret.
From the Publisher
It's time we looked at leadership from a different perspective--from the bottom up! Leadership definitions created by CEO's and their pet consultants rarely apply to people working at the bottom or in the middle of hierarchies. That doesn't mean they can't work; it just means they're incomplete. Kissing the Corporate Frog fills in the blanks and shows you how employees are always evaluating their managers according to a different definition of leadership.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Great book for employees of any size company,
This review is from: Kissing the Corporate Frog: An Enlightening Story about Leadership Traits 21st Century Employees Admire and Respect (Paperback)
Kissing the Corporate Frog is a must read for all employees working in most medium to large sized companies. As a corporative executive who has made his way from the bottom of the barrel, I can say that Marilyn's take on corporate life is well spoken and will be well received for years to come. A book that transcends the last few decades of life in corporate America.
5.0 out of 5 stars
Belongs on everyone's bookshelf!,
This review is from: Kissing the Corporate Frog: An Enlightening Story about Leadership Traits 21st Century Employees Admire and Respect (Paperback)
Marilyn Haight's book does an excellent job of turning the leadership paradigm on its head, allowing a younger generation to examine it from an entirely different perspective and to redesign the definition of leadership into a modern prototype.
I truly enjoyed reading this book: concise, realistic, and thought-provoking. It belongs in every management classroom and on the office bookshelf of every manager. Michael M. Alvarez Author of "Mamas, Don't Let Your Babies Grow Up To Be Writers"
