I use part of the principles discussed, but I think there are great lessons to be learned from the principles in the book.  Trying to lead by example is not the easiest lesson to learn, we often forget that others have feelings and need to have positive reinforcement to work efficiently and happily.  We need to give them reasons and when something is wrong, give examples of other ways that it could be done,  and that we all make mistakes.  Personally, the phrase "Do unto others"  has been my philosophy for the last 10 or so years, but putting yourself in others shoes can be harder than most of us realize.  It is easy to forget that we haven't always had the knowledge we now carry and that others just don't always know the ways it could be done.  It becomes a teaching moment that can benefit us as much as the person we are trying to help.
