ABOUT TIMELESS: 10 ENDURING PRACTICES OF APEX LEADERS
The word “Apex” brings to mind terms like “pinnacle,” “summit,” “peak,” and “greatest.” Apex Leaders are those individuals who have reached the top of their profession. They are recognized for excellence in their area of discipline and have achieved many of its highest rewards. Apex Leaders are the absolute best at what they do.
But what makes Apex Leaders so unique? Why do they stand out? How do they prepare? How do they think? Did God only tap a few select people on the shoulder and ordain them for greatness, or can you become an exponentially better leader, perhaps even an Apex Leader, by following their example?

The Bible is the best leadership book ever written. By combining its truths with what we learn from modern-day Apex Leaders, Timeless provides you and your team a plan for success.

“Apex leaders usually don’t know they are apex leaders. Others notice them, study them and write about them so leaders like me can read, learn and grow. My friend, Brian Dodd, has made it easier for me in his book TIMELESS: 10 Enduring Practices of Apex Leaders. You too can become an apex leader and even develop others to do the same. See you at the apex.”

"Leadership is a gift, but it's also a stewardship. When it's stewarded well, it produces immediate results and lays the foundation for a long-term legacy. Because of that, leaders also crave the honest truth. What gaps exist in our leadership? Where do we need to develop? Leaders never settle, and this book will challenge you and the people you mentor to take your next steps in growing your influence."
Tony Morgan

“As is so often his custom, Brian Dodd is right on the mark in Timeless with his identification of essential traits in Apex Leaders! His rich, value-laden examples capture how many of the world’s most notable leaders conduct their business and invest in the people around them. This read is so directly applicable for leaders serving across many different organizations and levels, it an indispensable part of any personal or professional library. I can’t wait to share Timeless with others in my organization!”
Dr. Brian V. Hightower
Superintendent of Schools, Cherokee County, GA.
“I have found in life that there are those that write about leadership and just observe traits. Then there are those that read about leadership and mimic others’ thoughts. However, in every generation there is someone who “gets” leadership and intuitively understand what makes the great leaders tick. Brian Dodd is that guy, “Apex Leader” is a great blend of “spiritual leadership” and fabulous stories from high achievers! This book lays the ground work as we all strive to be “Apex Leaders”
