Riassunto

Despite the extensive theory, research and conventional wisdom to be found on the subject of leadership, do we really know what makes a dynamic and effective leader?
Through a series of fascinating in-depth interviews with some of the world's top business leaders, Paul Taffinder examines the tried and tested leadership qualities that create successful and powerful organizations in today's rapidly changing business world.
In particular, he looks at what it really takes to be the driving force behind the process of transformation with which so many organizations are currently grappling. From this study he creates a model of leadership and, by challenging popular assumptions, he provides invaluable insights into what it takes to be a leader in the 1990s and far beyond. A number of crucial issues are tackled head on, including the different characteristics that make up a leader; leadership versus management; fear of failure and fear of success; risk making and risk taking in leadership; keeping ahead of the competition; leadership and corporate transformation.
Highly readable, controversial and thought-provoking, The New Leaders is a remarkable contribution to the current leadership debate, which will appeal to a vast audience of people worldwide, including general management, from CEOs to line managers and business students, from under-graduates to MBA level.
