“There are books that help you, and there are books that change you; but if I can help people change their leadership, then I can change their life. That’s a win-win in my book. Literally!” — Tony Sutherland
““I’ve been married to Tony for 30+ years, most of which he has been in the ministry. I have watched him up close, as a leader, persevere through hardships with a solid faith in God and an unstoppable spirit. I’ve also read all his books over the years, and I can honestly say this is his BEST work yet. Tony’s transparency and authenticity shine through in these pages. This book is an AWESOME resource for any leader. If you really want to grow in your leadership and avoid slipping into some of the pitfalls that await you, then you should read this book, and apply it to your life.””

““Every young leader needs to have this book in their hands from day one. The life lessons tied to Biblical truths will not only repair and restore the leader who has slipped, but will keep many from making the same slips. I so appreciate Tony’s transparency in these life lessons. Many pretend to have it all together resulting in pedestal stature while failing behind the scenes. Tony exposes the truth about leadership and provides a Biblical road map to real servant leadership. A true must read!””
““A tremendous resource for leaders of any experience level. Whether you are a seasoned leader or just entering your first leadership role, you will find this book PACKED with practical, life-giving, information and insight into what it means to be a leader. In this very candid book, Tony illustrates that leadership is not always glamorous, but is a practice that needs to be nurtured and worked at to get right. Leaning on God and learning from failure are two of the best principles that any leader can integrate into their own life. I cannot more highly recommend this book! It’s truly a treasured resource in my library.””

““In leading a government organization of more than 700 employees, I witness a lot of mistakes—many of them being my own. In Leader Slips, through equal parts wisdom and humility, Tony Sutherland gives voice and direction to imperfect leaders and followers alike...that is, all of us. Through his transparency, lighthearted, and practical approach, Tony shows us that by reflecting on our mistakes and embracing them, we can become better leaders through our failures. If you’re a leader and learner like me, this book should be a part of your ever expanding leadership library.””

With a bold vulnerability, Tony dives into his own life lessons to help others avoid learning the hard way. This book will challenge you and change you. Ultimately, it will help you not only become a better leader, but a better version of yourself. Each chapter reveals impactful lessons and ends with practical questions for reflection, that if approached with openness and applied, will champion you towards growth. Leader Slips is one of the most accessible and refreshingly honest books on leadership I have ever read.” ”

““I am the General Presbyter for a worldwide denomination of churches all across Western and Eastern Europe and the entire Middle East. I have known Tony Sutherland for 30 years and have watched him grow into a true man of God and an exceptional leader. We have regularly used him in large-scale international ministry events in teaching, speaking, and worship. Tony has a unique and powerful gift to communicate to the current needs of the church at large. I recently read Tony’s new book Leader Slips in its entirety, and I believe this is his BEST work yet. He speaks with genuine authority, years of experience, profound insight, and needful transparency to the critical nature of navigating failure in leadership. This book will inspire and deeply encourage leaders in every facet of ministry. It has certainly inspired and encouraged me.””
