ABOUT THE AUTHOR:

Jim Kouzes has been thinking about leadership ever since he was one of only a dozen Eagle Scouts to be selected to serve in John F. Kennedy's honor guard when Kennedy was inaugurated President of the United States. Kennedy's inaugural call to action -- "Ask not what your country can do for you; ask what you can do for your country." -- inspired Jim to join the Peace Corps, and he taught school in Turkey for two years. That experience made Jim realize that he wanted a career that offered two things: the chance to teach and the opportunity to serve. It was in his first job back in the U.S. training community action agency managers that Jim found his calling, and he has devoted his life to leadership development ever since.

Jim Kouzes is the coauthor with Barry Posner of the award-winning and best-selling book, The Leadership Challenge, with over 2.0 million copies in print. He's also the Dean's Executive Fellow of Leadership, Leavey School of Business, Santa Clara University. Jim and Barry have coauthored many bestselling leadership books including A Leader's Legacy, Encouraging the Heart, The Truth About Leadership, and Credibility. They are also the developers of The Leadership Practices Inventorythe bestselling off-the-shelf leadership assessment in the world. Their books are extensively researched-based, and over 500 doctoral dissertations and academic studies have been based on their original work.

Not only is Jim a highly regarded leadership scholar, The Wall Street Journal cited Jim as one of the twelve best executive educators in the U.S. He is the 2010 recipient of the Thought Leadership Award from the Instructional Systems Association, listed as one of HR Magazine's Most Influential International Thinkers for 2010, 2011, and 2012, named one of the 2010 and 2011 Top 100 Thought Leaders in Trustworthy Business Behavior by Trust Across America, and ranked by Leadership Excellence magazine as number sixteen on its list of the Top 100 Thought Leaders. In 2006 Jim was presented with the Golden Gavel, the highest honor awarded by Toastmasters International. Jim and Barry are also the recipients of the American Society for Training and Development (ASTD) 2009 Distinguished Contribution to Workplace Learning and Performance Award, presented in recognition of their extensive body of work and the significant impact they have had on learning and performance in the workplace.

I’m a fan of Mrs. Meyers’ Clean Day
Scent: Apple Cider, Size: 16 Fl Oz (Pack of 3)
I have used Mrs. Meyers Clean Day for years! For me, it works great on my final wipe down, and it leaves a nice fresh scent that fills the room. I really like the Apple Cider scent and I was very happy to see it available in a 3-pack. It is easy to use and does not leave a residue, because I buff the surface with a dry towel after I wipe off the product.

Lovely!
Scent: Rose, Size: 16 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Beautiful floral scent. I am very sensitive to strong scents. This spray does not irritate my nose and smells light, like fresh flowers. It does a great job cleaning my counters and leaving them sparkling!

Good cleaner, scent doesn’t last
Have been excited to try this and see how it compares to my previous cleaning solutions. I love the idea of a cleaner that keeps protecting my home for seven days after I clean! The bottle arrived packed inside a plastic bag, which kept it from leaking on other items in the box. That said, it did clearly leak inside the bag and I had to clean off the bottle before using as it was covered in dried solution that felt tacky to the touch. Tried to show in the photo but not sure that comes through. Anyway, I immediately made a bucket of solution per the directions and headed off to clean. The ratio of 1/2 cup cleaner to one gallon of water makes a VERY sudsy mixture. Not desirable for wiping surfaces or cleaning floors, in my opinion. I’ll use less cleaner next time because the suds were super annoying to deal with and also made me feel like an additional rinse was needed. A main goal of purchasing this was to use it on my porcelain tile wood look floors and have a long lasting scent, as other reviewers mentioned. I don’t think the scent lasted very long, though I was pleased with how fresh it smelled. It doesn’t smell like a traditional lemon cleaner. The scent is light and fresh and has a sort of herbal or “grassy” aspect to it. My floor seemed quite clean after using this (the mop bucket dump was surprising!) so even though the scent doesn’t stick around for long, I’m pleased with how clean my floor got. Would probably purchase again.
