In Search of Leaders by Hilarie Owen
If you are fed-up with the rot that is consuming most organizations and you want to find a truly inspirational way of developing yourself (or those within your organization) In Search of Leaders will help you escape. If you freeze water it becomes ice. Yet, when melting it reverts to water. This is change. If you burn a stick of wood, it becomes ashes. It can never become wood again. This is transformation. Learn how to transform yourself, rather than simply change. Follow the journey on which Hilarie Owen takes you, a journey that will allow you to discover your potential as a great leader in your own sphere of ambition and beyond. 'Illustrates brilliantly the importance of understanding the human essence of leadership.' Warren Bennis, Distinguished Professor of Business Administration, University of Southern California and Visiting Professor of Leadership, University of Exeter. Author of On Becoming a Leader and Organizing Genius.
