Caption: A Seussian Leadership Reading Circle: Lessons in Leadership from the genius Dr. Seuss' simple, yet timeless works of art. Who would have thought that from just one look, this little cat in the hat could bring us so much about leadership in a rhyming book? Dr. Seuss taught us about joys, rhymes, and laughter. But we're taking a deeper thought to the relation of his childlike lessons to acknowledge how we as adults can use them to become better leaders. "Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better. It's not." -Dr. Seuss
