The Stoics on Leadership

Stoics like Epictetus and Marcus Aurelius had a much stronger grasp on the role of a leader than most modern executives and business leadership gurus combined.

“The most productive advice anyone offers nowadays, casually or in a bestseller, often amounts to a restatement of something the Stoics said with more economy, intelligence, and wit long ago. The reader does better by going straight to the sages.”

- Ward Farnsworth, The Practicing Stoic
