Leaders I'm following

A few weeks ago one of my favorite leaders wrote a blog about prominent leaders that he's following in 2011. He threw out a few names that were new to me, so I checked some of them out. I thought it was appropriate to share with those who follow this blog the names of some very important leaders that are worth following this year.

Below is a list of current and relevant leaders - authors, bloggers, coaches, pastors, etc. - that I am choosing to invest time in reading and listening to what they have to offer on a variety of topics. I hope you take the time to look into their work and find inspiration in what they have to offer.
