New Leaders

By Paul Taffinder

Theory, research and conventional wisdom all have something to say on leadership. But do we really know what makes a leader? In this fascinating book, Paul Taffinder tackles the question which has eluded us for so long.

In a series of interviews with some of the world's top business leaders, he sets out to identify what qualities they might have in common. From this he creates a model of leadership development and by challenging popular assumptions he gives us insights into what it takes to be a leader in the 1990s and beyond.
