A Journey of Leadership
Small Beginnings traces one leader's unexpected journey from a small-town upbringing to becoming a college president. Through honest reflection and authentic storytelling, Quentin Wright shares the mentors, challenges, and pivotal moments that shaped his path to leadership. This book is not a roadmap for designing a campus, but rather a companion for emerging leaders preparing for their own endeavor—a reminder that every obstacle faced and every lesson learned is preparation for the purpose ahead.
