Leaders Who Changed the World

Leaders Who Changed the World

by Gordon Kerr (Author)

Synopsis

It takes charisma and inspiration to lead any group of people, be it a family, a community or a nation. It requires truly miraculous skills to go on leading people even after your death. Throughout history there have been only a handful of people capable of this form of leadership. They include Jesus Christ, Moses, Mohammed and Buddha, without whom the major religions of this world simply would not exist. LEADERS WHO CHANGED THE WORLD explores the lives and careers of such extraordinary individuals as Confucious, Mahatma Gandhi, Eleanor of Aquitaine and Nelson Mandela. Some have slogged and suffered in order to change the world for the better, others like Adolf Hitler or Osama Bin Laden have only succeeded in damaging humanity. What does it take to become a great leader?
