De Pree holds up nonprofits as mirrors of our greatest aspirations places where people work for the opportunity to contribute to the common good, and for the chance to realize their full human potential. He calls such organizations movements and challenges others to follow their example. Movements, De Pree maintains, transcend the deceptive simplicity of a single bottom line, and set standards for leadership and service all organizations should reach for. They lead not with the power of the paycheck or with bureaucratic carrots-and-sticks, but with the promise of meaningful work and lives fulfilled. For that reason, nonprofit or otherwise, they are the most successful organizations of all. Brimming with rich, warm, and wise advice, Leading Without Power takes an enlightened look at the forces that drive selfless accomplishment. It offers encouragement and hope for creating organizations that inspire the very best in people. And it provides leaders at every level with a new context for effecting positive change.

Review:
"As a survivor myself, I had read a ton of books which offered no "real" answers for me. Maybe it was the images, maybe it was her candid way of making sense of theological issues involved with abuse, but for me, this is a very well thought provoking and moving book. For the first time in my life, I was able to find closure where other books had failed. This author's artwork so eloquently describes what can often not be stated in words. But she does that well too! I appreciated her "down to earth" language. I didn't get lost in the "sexual abuse" jargon that often accompanies these type books. Thanks Melane for a such a blessing of a book and opening and sharing your art and words for all to heal from. I can't thank you enough! I loved it so much I sent a copy to entire family, so they too can begin the process of healing."
