  “Maybe the leadership that lasts the longest is the leadership that is so humble, so good, and yet so unspoken that it can only take root in others by quietly sprouting within their hearts—dawning in them from a place of intrinsic goodness and unyielding strength; from the originating place of human love and kindness.” — Lead Without Followers
  
  My new book Lead Without Followers is a lot less about being a “leader” in any sense we’re familiar with when we discuss leadership today, and is a lot more about becoming more human.
  
  And maybe simply becoming more human is the …

  We’re under two weeks until Lead Without Followers is released!
  
  Talk about how crazy (in a good way) self-publishing is nowadays — you can write your book as quickly as you wish (for me, it was about 84 days), have it totally edited a few days later and then, as mine is right now, currently being worked on by my layout designer before it goes to print.
  
  The usual publication process can take two or three years.
  
  The Lead Without Followers experience will be about a 3-month ordeal. Craziness, I tell ya!!
  
  Right now, I’m finishing an Advance Materials packet…

  By Dave Ursillo on Sep 8, 2011
  
  Early this past June, I decided to write the book that I had been dreaming to write for two and a half years.
  
  84 days and 60,000 words later, Lead Without Followers is finished!
  
  I’m psyched. Drained. Amped up. Exhausted. However, while at the beginning of this week I felt like the hard work was finally done, it’s really just beginning.
  
  We’re already 2 and a half weeks from launch date, September 26 2011!!
  
  The book will be available in softcover(!) and Kindle on Amazon.com, and in several incredible digital packages here on DaveUrsillo.com (.PDF, iPad, .mobi, audiobook and video-book). …

  “If you want to be a great leader, you must learn to follow the path. Stop trying to control. Let go of fixed plans and concepts, and the world will govern itself.” ~Lao Tsu
  
  In the past month, a very informal blog post styled as a “speech I never gave” went viral — raking thousands of visitors in just 48 hours and becoming the site’s most popular piece ever.
  
  Then, I decided to officially write a book (16,470 words and counting), which will be published for you this summer(!!).
  
  And last week, I released a free 19-page e-book for you…

  “Nature, like man, sometimes weeps from gladness.” ~Benjamin Disraeli
  
  The last few weeks have been a wild and awesome whirlwind.
  
  I attended my first conference ever at BlogWorld Expo in New York City and got to meet some of my best buddies in the blogosphere like Farnoosh Brock, Srini Rao and Bernardo Mendez, while meeting a ton of new people and making many new friends.
  
  The following week I traveled to Portland, Oregon for the first time for the World Domination Summit, survived jumping out of a perfectly good airplane with over 40 other World-Domineers, connected with …

  How do you tell a conference of 500 of some of the most talented and ambitious game-changers around that — in spite of their noble aims, world-shifting aspirations and even with their current successes — they’re all… kind of going about it wrong?
  
  Well, at Chris Guillebeau’s World Domination Summit (WDS) in Portland, Oregon this past weekend, I didn’t quite get the opportunity.
  
  A few months ago I was totally surprised to have been selected as a potential …
