Farm Grown Leadership Edward L Luttrell

Farm Grown Leadership is composed of a series of short stories taken from the youth of the author. Each story is tied to a key leadership lesson. Lessons learned from the farm, from FFA, 4-H, and the Grange are offered in an easy to read style. Humor and insight are bound together to teach the lessons of effective leadership. Cows, chickens, dogs, cats, and even an axe provide the basis of stories that share insight into dealing with the reality of leadership in the modern world. Intriguing animals, interesting experiences, and people who served as role models populate these stories and demonstrate the importance of learning leadership skills. The author grew up on a small cow-calf farm in Scholls, Oregon. He was an active 4-H and FFA member and joined the Grange at age 14. He has held leadership positions at all levels of the Grange and served eight years as the National President. He has belonged to a variety of other organizations and has held leadership positons in many of them.
