In all high level jobs there is a need for leadership.  We are what we make of ourselves, and making you be the person who you want to be requires forming through leadership experiences, both in class, in practicum, and in the real world.

One of my favorite books ever is The Leadership Challenge with Kozus and Posner (if I recall their names correctly).  The course in leadership that trained me in leadership in college was some of the most rewarding and future shaping events of my life.  It is entirely useful and the art and science of leading people to do great things is an asset that is very useful in your toolbox.

The Leadership Challenge is available in dead tree format, an eBook, or an audio book.  I personally have both the paperback and Audible book.  My recommendation is to pick up an audio book version of the material from Audible.com/.ca or wherever the closest Audible outfit is to your location.  If you have stumbled across this Sp00knet Echomail System and have decided that you want a job in the Intelligence Community then being a leader in practice will train you well for whatever job that you get a posting at.  There is no down-side of being proficient in leadership, however without it you will only be a manager.  From being a manager to being a leader is a great chasm; they are not the same and are often at odds with one another.

A great book on leadership that I have found follows:

"How to Win Friends and Influence People" by Dale Carnegie

hrm... actually that is my best recommendation right there.  Again, it is
available for a single credit off of Audible.com which is the way I'd recommend that you consume the book.  A single credit costs between $12 and $14 depending on what kind of subscription you have.  But seriously, an audio book being cheaper than the hardcopy, it's a no-brainer, it's the way to go!!

Cheers!
