Synopsis:
What does it really mean to take a leadership role? In this book, learn how true leaders are made and how you can be one too
No one is born to lead. This is the idea at the heart of this thoughtful book on true leadership. While popular culture feeds us images of the stereotypical leader―charismatic, powerful, decisive―the truth is, with the right amount of self-knowledge and authenticity, anyone can be a good leader.
There are countless courses and books available on leadership technique, decision-making and public speaking, but How to Be a Leader by Martin Bjergegaard and Cosmina Popa aims to give you the tools to understand and bring out your own individual leadership style. With an in-depth look at what it really means to lead, and the differences between being a manager and being a leader, this book invites you to explore and learn about the unique leader in you.
