John Adair is without doubt one of the foremost thinkers on leadership in the world. - Sir John Harvey-Jones This pioneering work from leadership guru John Adair has transformed the understanding of how leadership works and how executives can become business leaders. The author's views are presented in a clear and readable form as a dialogue with a young business executive, who is soon to become a strategic leader. By using this approach Not Bosses but Leaders offers accessible guidance on exactly what is needed to become a leader, as each fundamental aspect of leadership is exposed and explained in a concise, lucid way. It is a book that doesn't depend on historical models but springs from the day to day realities of management. It is the study of what a leader actually has to do.
