In a time when leaders are falling like trees in a storm, there is a need for a different kind of leader.

Our world desperately needs leaders with roots: ones who are deeply grounded, who know who they are, and who are equipped to endure adversity and bear the fruit of vibrant leadership.

Eric Geiger believes that lasting leadership starts beneath the surface. Drawing from the biblical story of Nehemiah—often referred to as history’s first leadership book—Eric offers leaders practical insights on the roots beneath the surface that result in the fruit all leaders desire: vision, conviction, servanthood, perseverance, credibility, transformation, and resolve.
