NEWS RELEASE

In his latest book, The U.S. Coronavirus Crisis and The Rise of the “Silver-Mettle” Leaders, former Speakin’ Out News freelancer tim allston praised the governors – America’s #2 leaders – for saving many lives, contrasted to President Trump’s slow/low/no COVID-19 responses.
This printed/digital/audiobook, now available at https://amzn.to/3cx1koV, exposes the historic devaluing of #2 persons, who allston labeled “‘silver-mettle’ leaders.”
“You are a ‘silver-mettle leader’ if you: report to someone in your organization – whether it’s in the family, workplace or church (silver); perform your often-unheralded tasks with character, fortitude and courage (mettle); and succeed primarily not through your title or position, but through your influence and your relationships (leader).
“No organization can thrive or even SURVIVE without its ‘leaders from the middle,’ . . . and Washington’s COVID-19 response is the daily proof.”
With no White House-generated national coronavirus crisis plan five governors, featured on the book’s front cover, mimicked Jesus Christ’s servant leadership style of credibility, teamwork and grassroots empathy.
“The main message of this book and upcoming 11-book series is to highlight the challenges and opportunities of being #2 persons, leaders from the middle, in any organization – whether it’s in the family, workplace, social group or place of worship,” explained allston.
For Speakin’ Out News, allston served frequently as a contributing writer, presentation spokesman and videographer for its digital editions.
The book’s printed and digital versions are available at https://amzn.to/3cx1koV.
