“This book is a powerful teaching tool to help leadership understand the dynamics of a healthy volunteer organization; it comes with a step by step plan to implement the system and a guide to interpret the feelings and feedback you will encounter as you proceed through the process.”

"This book is phenomenal! It really speaks to the heart of volunteer and civic organizations on how they can get new members and current members more involved in the leadership process of their chapters whether it is by stepping up to chair a committee or to move into a board of director position or even move on to the state or national level of the organization. It also shows the current boards how to finally replace themselves and feel good about the decision to let others lead and to let go. I hope that all of the Jaycees across the country read this book and utilize all of the information; I truly believe it will make a difference for our organization."

“Being a chapter leader can be a lonely place and encourages us to become martyrs to the cause. In the Lazy Leader, Cynthia challenges us to think the unthinkable about how we can encourage volunteers to share the workload and gives us permission to focus on the real work of the leader – steering, motivating and making it a fun and rewarding experience.”
