Synopsis

Good leaders are in demand. The world is full of managers and desperately short of leaders - real leaders. The Leadership Crash Course is designed to help anyone develop and hone the necessary skills to be a truly effective leader. Structured in seven parts, this fully revised new edition is a self-improvement course like no other. Readers can analyse their strengths and weaknesses by working through a range of activities and exercises. It's also full of practical hints and tips that will help readers make quick decisions when needed. There is guidance on how to take on a new leadership role with rapid impact, set up and lead a change initiative, communicate change to employees, disturb the organizational culture in order to make things happen, turn your mistakes into successes and mobilize staff so they are all pulling in the same direction. The Leadership Crash Course is really about creating value, because good leadership moves things forward, creates action and increases the likelihood of growth, attainment and success. .

Following a Masters degree and PhD in organizational psychology - and what he describes as a 'mercifully brief career in the mining industry' - Paul turned his attention to the psychological driving forces that underlie the world of business.
