Sommario/riassunto

This book lets the voices of those acknowledged as leaders across the community do the talking. These are people who live, breath and practise leadership - they make it happen. Each of the ten leaders who speak in this book has demonstrated outstanding success in their field, such that their story is rich and informative, adding both critical and creative insights for those who seek to understand the leadership phenomenon better.
