About this listen
Transform your leadership from ordinary to extraordinary with this guidebook from a seasoned business leader and Wall Street Journal bestselling author.
Virtually every problem can be traced back to one root cause: leadership. Far too many leaders are struggling, merely maintaining the status quo and unable to find the way forward. What these leaders need is a fresh take on how to unlock their full potential.
Uncommon Greatness is the key many leaders have been searching for their entire career. This book will reframe much of what you know about traditional leadership theory and practice, challenge some of your deeply held assumptions, and provide scores of practical and concrete ideas you can use today.
Former Vice President of High Performance Leadership at Chick-fil-A, Inc., Mark Miller believes it’s possible for all leaders to lead at a higher level and increase their impact on the world. Uncommon Greatness offers every leader the opportunity to:
- Achieve unprecedented levels of performance
- Discover new levels of joy and fulfillment from your work
- Become a leader people want to follow
- Create impact beyond your wildest imagination
Every leader has a choice to make when it comes to how they lead. What are you striving for? Don’t settle for mere greatness! Raise your sights. Uncommon Greatness is within your reach.

One of the things I love about this book is it a combines a couple of Mark’s previous books with a little bit more practical steps how to become this uncommon leader. It has transformed my leadership style and I am super thankful and will never be the same.
