A propos de ce titre

Synopsis

This provocative practical book, is the essential guide to the theory and practice of leadership - whatever your level in an organisation. It's both an indispensible yet entertaining guide to the core skills of leadership and a practical handbook for

getting to the top and staying there - the single book guide to a successful career.

A unique and brilliant combination of authoritative guidance and stimulating and entertaining advice, it includes novel material on career limiting moves, advice on what to do when you look like you are about to become an involuntary member of the cock up club and how to lead by following.

New to the edition:

� More focus on moments of truth, the tough stuff. E.g. firing people (and how not to be fired), conflicts, managing the awkward squad.

� More on the politics of leadership: how to get to where you need to be to make things happen.

� How to look, talk and act the part.

Fundamentally different from most leadership books, it will:

� Be for leaders at all levels- provide alternative perspectives on leadership- mix practical experience and theory

� Provide the top ten tools and techniques that all leaders master

� Highlight the perils and pitfalls of leadership and how to avoid them.

Quatri�me de couverture

What you actually need to do to manage, lead and succeed

There has been a long search for the alchemy of leadership; we all want to find the elusive pixie dust that we can sprinkle on ourselves to turn us into glittering leaders. Few of us, however, are likely to become the ideal mix of Nelson Mandela and Lord Nelson. Instead we need something simple and practical.

How to Lead

is based on original research into over 70 of the world’s best, and a few of the world’s worst, organisations. It cuts through all the daunting hero talk and shows you, in real terms, how to develop the skills and behaviours to succeed as a leader.

With new sections on hiring and firing, dealing with the awkward squad and coaching for success, this second edition is your ultimate guide on how to lead and succeed.

‘A rare gem of a book. Highly recommended’

‘Wonderfully clear, engaging, detailed and practical’

Professor Nigel Nicholson, London Business School

‘Useful for anyone keen to develop leadership skills at whatever level’

David Gregson, Chairman, Phoenix Private Equity

‘…has the ability to make everyone pause, ponder and think on’

Nick Kitchen, VP Human Resources, Unilever
