Built on a unique four-year experiment working alongside real leaders in real businesses, "Living Leadership" explodes the myth of the charismatic, transformational leader, to show that real progress comes from the dramatically ordinary stuff of leadership.

By observing business leaders in top companies on a day-to-day basis, the authors found out how these top managers really spent their time and how they really made an impact. They saw these leaders holding key discussions with their teams; watched them formulate strategies, plans and visions; observed their behaviours, ambitions and frustrations. What emerged was a powerful set of principles and proven advice for managers everywhere who want to develop their leadership skills.

New to this edition:
The content is refreshed by using different quotes and examples from the leaders who took part in the original research. Plus there will be updates throughout.
