“In Spark Angie Morgan, Courtney Lynch, and Sean Lynch hit all the right notes at exactly the right time. Their central themes of character, credibility, accountability, intent, service, confidence and consistency are exactly what every leader needs to be reading and practicing now. The truth is that credibility is the foundation of leadership, and without it people just won’t willingly follow someone who aspires to lead. Spark guides you through the essential steps that will enable you to earn and sustain that credibility. The authors’ extensive leadership experiences under very challenging conditions infuse Spark with a strong sense of reality. This is a very honest and candid book—one you can believe in, because when you apply the lessons in it, you know that it can be done with authenticity and a sense of service to others. All leaders will benefit from reading and applying Spark. I highly recommend it.”
