Publisher's Summary
This program was previously published as Minority Leader. This updated edition includes a new preface written and read by Stacey Abrams.
"Abrams's own grit, coupled with her descriptions of much stumbling and self-doubt, will make [Lead from the Outside] touch you in a way few books by politicians can." (The New York Times)
National leader Stacey Abrams has written the guide to harnessing the strengths of being an outsider and succeeding anyway.
Leadership is hard. Convincing others - and yourself - that you are capable of taking charge and achieving more requires insight and courage. Lead from the Outside is the handbook for outsiders, written with an eye toward the challenges that hinder women, people of color, the working class, members of the LGBTQ community, and millennials ready to make change.
Stacey uses her hard-won insights to break down how ambition, fear, money, and failure function in leadership, and she includes practical exercises to help you realize your own ambition and hone your skills. Lead from the Outside discusses candidly what Stacey has learned over the course of her impressive career in politics, business, and the nonprofit world: that differences in race, gender, and class provide vital strength, which we can employ to rise to the top and create real and lasting change.

It is insightful & honest.
It was an easy read, very clear and direct to the points. Speaking things into existence and understanding your arena are most memorable.

Above and beyond
I've listened/read a lot of self help books in my time, many of them touting the benefits of "just think positive thoughts and your life will change". This is far and away more insightful, deliberate, actionable, and no bull. I am so appreciative to Stacey for putting this book together. I will be listening to this one on repeat.

It was ok
The book reads as if it is just another item on a checklist for her political campaign. I found it very repetitive in some parts. She has accomplished a lot which is inspiring but I was a little underwhelmed by the book.
