  Twelve distinguished business leaders talk frankly about how they climbed to the top of their industries, and the strategies which keep them there. This book looks at the different personal style of leadership of each contributor and their approaches to life at the top of the corporate tree from a different standpoint. The entrepreneurial flair of Peter de Savary contrasts with the professionalism of Sir Francis Tombs, Chairman of Rolls-Royce. The book also looks at Sir Adrian Cadbury who has inherited a flourishing business, which he has nurtured into a large international corporation, Anita Roddick, Sir Terence Conran, Sir Hector Laing and Sir Austin Pierce, among others.
