The book title True Blue Leadership 
sounds like a new management book, but then the cover showing a dog might make you think it is something else altogether – yet it is not. This is a new leadership book by Tracey C. Jones that covers 10 management truths (a.k.a. tricks or tips) in 91 pages from the perspective of her dog, Mr. Blue. Although the book concept is different, it tells it like it should be in the world of business. Below are the 10 main leadership tips as I understood them from the chapters in this book.
