I'm looking for some new books to read on Project Leadership. Either memoirs or
guidebooks on project leadership techniques.
Have you read anything lately that you felt enhanced your leadership skills?

• LEADERSHIP AND SELF-DECEPTION: GETTING OUT OF THE BOX by the Arbinger Institute
• What Color is Your Parachute? – Richard N. Bolles

Though a little bit more general:

Patrick M. Lencioni: The Five Dysfunctions of a Team

Stéphane Parent Self Employed / Semi-retired| Leader Maker Prince Edward Island, Canada
I find general leadership easier to find and just as beneficial for project management. Like Thilo, I recommend Lencioni's fable.

I also liked David Rock's Quiet Leadership.
