A rare perspective from someone who honed his leadership insights in a very successful global professional career spanning over 30 years that took him to live and work in seven countries on four continents over this period and rising to senior executive positions with regional responsibilities spanning multiple countries.
This is a career uniquely fashioned by the context of always being a minority in senior executive teams as well leadership competencies shaped by this; at every stage learning how leadership strengths that got him to particular points in his career were becoming his leadership vulnerabilities that had to be addressed. All of these rich insights are generously shared with real-life stories in this book.
This is a books that shows you how to bring out the leader in you; leadership that cause people who work with you to get up every morning, excited to join you to achieve something that they perceive as meaningful and valuable for all concerned.
