In this insightful classic, John Gardner unpacks what it means to be a leader, stressing the importance of dispersed leadership and a primary understanding of leadership as applied across all sectors of society.

"A masterpiece."--Walter F. Ulmer, Jr., President and CEO, Center for Creative Leadership

Leaders today are familiar with the demand that they come forward with a new vision. But it is not a matter of fabricating a new vision out of whole cloth. A vision relevant for us today will build on values deeply embedded in human history and in our own tradition. It is not as though we come to the task unready. Men and women from the beginning of history have groped and struggled for various pieces of the answer. The materials out of which we build the vision will be the moral strivings of the species, today and in the distant past.

Most of the ingredients of a vision for this country have been with us for a long time. As the poet wrote, "The light we sought is shining still." That we have failed and fumbled in some of our attempts to achieve our ideals is obvious. But the great ideas still beckon--freedom, equality, justice, the release of human possibilities. The vision is to live up to the best in our past and to reach the goals we have yet to achieve--with respect to our domestic problems and our responsibilities worldwide.

Quality surge protector
Size: 6 Ft, Color: Black
It’s a surge protector that works well. I just needed a simple, small, and relatively flat outlets to bring power to my daughter’s bike trainer. This provides enough outlets to power the trainer, a fan and a iPad charger.

Solid surge protector, but some outlets are a tight fit
Size: 6 Ft, Color: Black
For the price, this power strip covers all the bases β€” 6 outlets, 3 USB ports, and a generous 6ft cord that reaches exactly where you need it without having to rearrange furniture. The surge protection at 1680 joules gives me peace of mind having it near my electronics, and the ETL listing confirms it meets safety standards which is always reassuring with electrical products. The USB ports are a nice bonus and charge my devices at a decent speed. My main gripe is that some of the AC outlet slots are noticeably stiff and tight, making it genuinely difficult to plug certain things in β€” I had to use a bit more force than I was comfortable with on a couple of them. It loosens up slightly with use but out of the box it was more of a struggle than it should be. Not a dealbreaker but something worth knowing especially if you're plugging in bulkier adapters. Overall a good functional surge protector for a home office or dorm room setup at a very reasonable price

Great thick surgery protector
Size: 20 Ft, Color: White
I am so glad there was a 20ft option. Our house is 104 years old and sockets were very scarce. I guess when we updated the electric we should have added more sockets lol I have a desktop Coca-Cola fridge and I run a desktop Vornado fan year round. So this was the perfect length to plug these 2 items in. I liked that this has a large extension cord on it. Feels very furable and that it has more meat in it yo protect my items vs the thin corded ones. It also has places to charge USB or USB C. Love the design a lot. Having the prongs turned to add from side works perfect and leaves more room for additional plugs. Very portable and no noise whatsoever.
